This year the retreat will be at St Mary’s, where the sleeping quarters do NOT have bunk beds, but semi private spaces separated by partial walls, with individual sinks, desk, storage and window. A curtain separates each room from the hallway.   (See other photos for more details of the facilities)  The bathrooms are shared.

These facilities are beautiful, clean, well kept, with walking paths, fountains and sweeping, breathtaking views.
