Retreat Centre Description

Parcevall Hall is the Retreat House of the Diocese of Leeds, situated in the Yorkshire Dales National Park in the scenic valley of Wharfedale.

We welcome day and residential guests all year round, and a warm welcome awaits you here. Guests enjoy the hospitality, tranquillity and peace of the Hall, its glorious gardens, excellent food and the fellowship of like-minded guests. Our retreat programme includes a wide range of faith-based retreats as well as arts and wellbeing retreats; we also host private groups who want to run their own retreats.

 

We don't charge a single supplement, and you will not be asked to share your room. Single guests often make new friends during their time here, and enjoy exploring the surrounding countryside and villages from the comfort of the Hall.
