The Sound of Musings
Spend an encouraging and inspiring retreat with Maria the ‘flibbertigibbet’ nun turned governess as she discovers the life she was born to live. Prompted by the songs, characters and stories from 'The Sound of Music', Bryony Wood will lead us on our own journey of faith – it will be biblical, authentic and quite a lot of fun. We will probably even make our own sounds of music too!

Labyrinth Retreat
During our time together, we will learn more about the fascinating history of labyrinths, their symbolism, spirituality and the many ways in which they are being used today. We will walk the labyrinth (both indoors and outside in the garden) with different intentions each day, and enjoy the tranquillity of a candlelit labyrinth walk after dark. Led by Nickie Fidgin.
