LOOK AT THE BIRDS on Holy Island
Date: Fri, 6th Jun 2025 16:00
This special retreat on Holy Island is timed for spring migration and breeding birds. The all-inclusive price is 495 pounds per person (plus 75 single room supplement) for 3 nights full board, accommodation and retreat fees at Marygate House Retreat Centre on the island. The retreat runs from 4pm on Friday afternoon on 6 June until 10am on Monday 9th.
We will be staying on the island itself at Marygate House - a very comfortable Georgian house with twin bedded rooms that share bathrooms and toilets. The food is home-made and consistently praised for its good quality. We will have exclusive use of the house and its facilities which includes its impressive library about Celtic Christianity.
In order to book your room, please firstly contact me about availability. You will need to send a deposit of 195 pounds which is returnable until 6 weeks before when the balance is due. 50% is refundable up until 4 weeks before, and 25% refundable until 2 weeks to go.
LOOK AT THE BIRDS retreats are special opportunities to learn in depth about birds and what they reveal about God's love. We have guided birdwatching walks suitable for complete beginners, plus a rhythm of quiet contemplative worship and reflections on some of the main birds featured in the Bible like the dove, the eagle, the raven and the owl.
