Stanton House

Stanton House continues to hold to the vision of providing space for individuals and groups to meet to discern God’s call on their lives. The House and Grounds provide, in the words of the original vision, ‘a place for Christian folk who have a need to stand back a little from the pressure of events and seek renewal and adjustment’. The House was given to the Trust with no endowment. We continue to rely on donations and contributions from guests to cover all costs, including modest staff team allowances. It remains a principle that individual retreat guests are not given a bill but are invited to contribute towards their stay and, thanks to the generosity of some, others are not prevented from coming through lack of means. The House continues to be busy and attracts many visitors from all walks of life.

Stanton House is situated in seventeen acres of land – a green sanctuary with ancient trees, a peaceful stream at the bottom of the hill, and open view towards the Chilterns, and Oxford and the surrounding area. There are plenty of corners to rest and sit, ponder and relax. There is plenty of shade in the garden for the hot summery days, and a prayer cabin to enjoy the view in the presence of the One who created it all. Sheep are often found enjoying our fields, and pheasants, deer and badger are seen regularly in the grounds too. Flowers give rhythm to the passing seasons and the panorama constantly changes as the seasons pass by.

Each of our homely bedrooms has its own unique character and are all different in shape, size and décor. There’s something for everyone. We have a range of single, twin or double bedrooms. Each bedroom has got its own wash hand basin, comfy armchair and a writing desk. There are ten bedrooms (11 max) and there’s space for maximum of 23 guests where visitors coming with a group are happy to share their room. We provide bedlinen and towels.
