Retreats

Temple House is well suited to host retreats and gatherings of all shapes and sizes. The idyllic setting with fresh air, clean energy and tranquility lends itself beautifully to those that wish to organise a retreat.
We are quite open to what sort of approach you take. We have a talented chef who is pleased to cater for dietary requirements and specific needs. The catering is therefore taken care of by us. You will sit together at one enormous mahogany table which is rather special.

Obviously exclusive take over of the big house for B&B is essential. We have 10 rooms in the big house with 16 separate beds. Suits a 16 seater bus perfectly...
There is also an optional cottage that sleeps 8. 2 twin, 2 double, 2 bathroom. The leaders sometimes like to take this as 'their space'.
We find that most groups tend to be out for lunch exploring this fascinating region.

In addition to the bedrooms, there are 2 sitting room which we call the Morning Room, Library and more warm bright rooms for any indoor activity that you may wish to lay on.
You will have your own expertise of course but here are few ideas.
