The former cells of the Old Courthouse have been transformed into small
single bedrooms which are available for visitors for short periods. Normally
we have only three or four cells available for guests, so please book well
in advance.
The current price of £25 (£20 for Friends
of Jamyang) includes breakfast.
As a Buddhist centre, we expect visitors to
abide by five main rules:
* No killing (including animals)
* No stealing
* No lying
* No alcohol or drugs
* No sexual activity
Please arrive between 2 - 6 pm. If your arrival will be later than this due to flights or train arrivals, you MUST make sure we are aware of this, to have someone on call to let you into the building. Once you have checked in, you will be given your own keys.
The cells are small (approximately 7.5 ft by 5 ft), warm and private. Bedding
and towel are provided.
Guests use a shared bathroom and a fully equipped kitchen. The room rate includes
self-service continental breakfast in the kitchen. Guests are free to use the
Shrine Room and Library. We don’t offer a laundry facility, but there
is a launderette nearby, and a phone box just outside the centre.
We require at least 48 hours’ notice of cancellation, not including weekends.
There is a refund policy, to know more about it please call the office.
Before 11am on the day of departure.
The building is a no-smoking area. One of the cell block's functions is to provide retreat space, so we need you to be as quiet and considerate as possible, and in particular not to listen to music except through headphones and in private.
The maximum duration of your stay is one week. Unfortunately we can’t accommodate children under 16.
Please confirm your stay with a member of office staff and send 50% of the cost of your stay as a deposit by cheque or pay by card with the office.
