Join us in June for a spacious retreat with meditation, silence, ritual, Dharma discussion, and beautiful countryside. This is a perfect opportunity to immerse yourself in Buddhist practice with the rest of the Oxford Sangha. We'll be exploring the theme of Mettā (universal loving-kindness), with a particular focus on meditation. Book now!
When: 6pm on Friday 26th to 3pm on Sunday 28th of June 2026
Where: Adhisthana, Coddington, Herefordshire, HR8 1JL

We suggest an additional donation of £80-120 with bursaries available
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to book?
Yes, and we'll be taking bookings up to the 19th of June
What should I wear?
Bring comfortable clothes for periods of sitting meditation and outdoor clothes if you want to enjoy the countryside.
Is there anything else I need to bring?
Bring a timepiece/alarm clock that's not your phone, as we'll be asking everyone to switch off their devices for the weekend. Also, bring your own bedding, toiletries, and towels.
