st cuthman's

i have just returned from a weekend retreat at st cuthman's in west sussex. it is a beautiful old house set in lovely grounds. it has two roaring log fires burning all day - keeping it extremely cosy. the food is also excellent.

you can choose to go for a directed retreat, a silent retreat, or just a relaxing (quiet) weekend. i chose not to have a silent retreat, but because i went on my own, there was plenty of time for reflection and quiet. and plenty of time for reading - a bit of theology, a bit more fiction, and lots of newspapers.
