Jhana Grove Retreat Center

Jhana Grove Retreat Centre comfortably accommodates up to 60 guests at a time in 10 individual cottages containing rooms each with its own en-suite. This allows a great deal of privacy and thus maximises the benefits of meditation practice. Connected to the cottages, by a covered walkway, is a large, air-conditioned meditation hall with three adjoining halls for the convenient practice of walking meditation. There is also a well-equipped kitchen and dinning area, as well as laundry, office, and storage facilities. A small caretakers residence completes the centre.
Residential and Self-Retreats

We offer regular formal residential retreats led by the Sangha of nearby Bodhinyana and Dhammasara Monasteries. Formal residential retreats are very popular and early booking is advised. For experienced/serious spiritual practioners we also offer Sangha mentored self-retreats. The minimum stay for self-retreats is 7 days. All retreats focus on meditation and retreatants follow the 8-precepts of Buddhism. Noble Silence is kept during almost the entire time. Jhana Grove Meditation Centre is also available for meditation retreats by other Buddhist Groups, subject to availability.
Disabled?

The facilities have been designed so that the elderly and infirmed, especially those with illnesses such as cancer, can learn meditation techniques and strategies in a peaceful environment that is also physically comfortable.
