The words put into the mouth of Thomas Cromwell’s character by the author Hilary Mantel in the BBC adaptation of the Wolf Hall series, ‘The Mirror and the Light’ perfectly sums up how many regard the Abbey:

“There is an Abbey…Launde…in the heart of England. The air is always sweet there, and it’s quiet. A little heaven here on earth…”

With its Grade II listed Manor House the Abbey is one of Britain’s important heritage sights. But more than this, it has been a place of great spiritual significance for over 900 years.

Today, thousands come annually through our doors in need of rest, spiritual sustenance and a hospitable sense of community.

A gift in your will can help ensure the historic Launde Abbey is a place of prayer, hospitality, community and sanctuary for many years and generations to come.
