Our monastery guesthouse is a place where people can get a little space apart for quiet and solitude to renew mind, body and spirit and to share the fruits of Monastic Life.

Here at Glencairn, our longterm aspiration to build a new guesthouse at the Abbey is in the final stages of preparation for planning permission.  We look forward to the completion of this phase of our building project in the foreseeable future.

Our present guesthouse which forms a wing of the Abbey buildings has recently re-opened following refurbishment.  Residential accommodation is comfortable but quite simple.  Many come to us to share in a certain spirit they find in Glencairn. We pray for and with our guests and hope that St. Benedict’s great spirit of peace will embrace all who come.
