The Barn

NB: due to continued public health concerns, Pendle Hill has made the difficult decision to close our campus to outside visitors until the virus is contained, and at least through 10/01/2020. You can read the letter from our Interim Executive Director about this decision. We will announce our opening date on our website and e-newletter at least two months prior to welcoming visitors. Until we know our opening date, we will not be able to accept any Conference Service reservations. If you have any questions about Conference Services at Pendle Hill, please send them to conferences@pendlehill.org and the Conference Sales Coordinator will respond in due course. Thank you for your patience and understanding in these times.
