Welcome to our beautiful 17th century Retreat Centre
Come away and be refreshed! The vision for our Retreat Centre is for you to be able to enjoy staying in our beautiful home in the Cotswolds, in relaxation and time with God – whether as individuals, church groups, or as Christian families or friends.
We offer self-catering accommodation, taking individual or group bookings. Groups of up to 15 people together in our Retreat House, and up to 9 people in our Cottage. We also cater for day groups.
All guests have use of our peaceful Retreat Centre Gardens.
Come and be refreshed: we look forward to seeing you!
Location
We are on the edge of the quiet village of Childswickham, two miles from Broadway in the Vale of Evesham. For those who enjoy a good walk in beautiful scenery, we are surrounded by excellent walking country on the edge of the Cotswold Hills with an abundance of pretty ‘olde worlde’ villages. For more history and culture, and a bit of ‘retail therapy’, Worcester, Gloucester, Cheltenham and Stratford are within easy driving distance.
The Retreat House (Childswickham House), together with the Tithe Barn, Pottery Studio and other buildings encircle a peaceful courtyard, leading into two acres of gardens and 60 acres of our own farmland.
We welcome church groups and organisations from different Christian traditions. We also offer individuals the space for time out in a quiet corner, and families the opportunity to relax together. Day or overnight visits can be arranged for during the week or at weekends.
Self-Catering Accommodation and Groups
Our retreat centre offers self-catering accommodation, with new kitchen and dining facilities in the Retreat House and the Cottage.
Our group bookings will be for up to 15 people in the Retreat House and 9 people in the Cottage, overnight. We will continue to host day groups in the Tithe Barn.
Meal provision
We regret we are unable to offer the option of providing cooked lunches or evening meals. However, we will leave provisions for a simple breakfast in the kitchen for those staying overnight.
Costs
- Staying: £45 per person for a night, including basic breakfast (cereal, bread, butter, milk, jam, marmalade…)
