The Ammerdown Centre is a sanctuary of peace, set in the heart of beautiful Somerset countryside, just 12 miles south of Bath and 16 miles from Bristol. Offering our guests space and time away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life, our retreat centre nestles in the grounds of Ammerdown Park, where our guests can relax in the garden or wander further afield through woodland and open countryside. With home-cooked food, 40 bedrooms and fully-equipped meeting rooms, we are an ideal venue for people to meet together or enjoy an individual stay. Ample free parking. We can accommodate up to 100 day visitors. We host retreats, courses, and quiet days led by a variety of spiritual directors and course leaders. We also provide specific courses for people of all faiths and none seeking to explore, experience and apply nonviolence, peace and reconciliation in their own lives and a world increasingly divided and conflicted
