A small, non-residential community based at Brancepeth Castle, offering retreats and spiritual direction.
The Community of the Well offers a quiet space for individuals or groups to retreat to for an hour, a day or a week.
There is a daily pattern of Anglican worship in the castle chapel, and spiritual direction as requested.
Daily Worship
Join us for a small, intimate Eucharist service, held most weekdays at midday: explore what the gospel reading of the day is saying to you today; pray, grow and deepen. Text ahead on 07504489089 to check the provision for the day.
Individual Retreats & Private Retreats
Simple living in a grand and beautiful setting: Brancepeth Castle is not a dedicated retreat house but a working building within which, peace is found. The community at Brancepeth Castle invite you to join the monastic-like rhythm of worship and practical work restoring fabric and building faith.
Whether you want to DO: actively participate in skilled or semi-skilled crafts (tuition is offered), or read, pray, reflect, walk and just BE, is up to you. Individuals and small groups can be accommodated for independent retreats, or with input on request from the Community of the Well.
We offer a small number of traditional, themed retreats, the rest of the year is booked flexibly - though only hardy folk should attempt the winter months!
Home-cooked (catered) and self-catering options available.
7 bedrooms, two of which are en-suite. Cost guide: circa £50.00 per night
For more information and dates of retreats see community of the well website
