Cabin and rooms for Personal Retreats or Time Out
Please see our new Retreats & Holiday Accommodation page and a wonderful slideshow - click here.
We have a newly built and very cosy cabin called ‘Kuti’ in the upper garden, and a room on the ground floor of the beautifully renovated Stone Barn. These can be rented for personal retreats at very affordable rates. Contact us for information and booking. Whilst staying at Kalyana Centre the Meditation Room on the first floor of the Stone Barn is available for your Meditation / Yoga practice and the countryside offers wonderful opportunities for hill and beach walking. There are facilities for you to prepare your own breakfast and lunch. We will provide dinner. The resident teachers, Timothy and Eva, will be available for support and guidance with your personal practice.
Kalyana Centre has rooms available if you would like to stay overnight before or after workshops.
Volunteering at Kalyana Centre
If you would like to help the growth and development of our Centre please contact us to discuss volunteer opportunities. We accept resident volunteers for short periods to help with the garden and special projects. Food and lodging can be provided. Non-resident volunteers are equally welcome. We look forward to speaking with you.
About Dana
Dana is the Pali word for generosity. Retreats are often taught on the basis of donations or Dana. The reason is that traditionally the teaching of this liberating practice of Mindfulness is considered priceless. It doesn't mean that the teachers don't need financial support. Dana offers you the opportunity to donate anonymously as your heart guides you. Look for the Dana box at the end of the retreat and give what feels appropriate. If course fees are a hardship for you, please talk with us to arrange a reduction.
