Refresh Yourself
Join us for a personal retreat, sojourn, or extended stay. Those seeking overnight accommodations or place to take a sabbatical are most welcome!
Looking to enhance your personal retreat?
Join in components of The Spring Term by worshiping and working alongside students and scholars. Participate in guided opportunities for daily self reflection, and spend time in the garden or library with this year’s cohort.
Enjoy time in the Art Studio every day between 8 AM and 8 PM with purchase of a $10 day pass ($15/day for guests who are not staying overnight). Take time to work on your own project, or paint, collage, sew, crochet, and create with the supplies available in this space.
Learn more about using the Art Studio during your stay.
Make your own working retreat. For those interested in the rhythm and gratification of a working retreat, there are multiple volunteer opportunities on campus. Take up chores in the garden, kitchen, library, or on the grounds during your stay to give your retreat structure and purpose.
Apply for volunteer opportunities during your personal retreat.

In the event that the presence of a service animal is requested, Pendle Hill follows the ADA guidelines, which state that a service animal is limited to dogs or miniature horses that are trained to do work or perform tasks for individuals with disabilities. The task(s) performed by the service animal must be directly related to the person’s disability. The service animal must be on a leash, harness, or tether and under the control of the handler at all times. Per ADA guidelines, “comfort” or “emotional support animals” and service-animals-in-training do not meet the definition of a service animal. Pets are also not permitted at Pendle Hill.
