Exploring New Monasticism
We are situated in Basse Normandie in the Manche region of France. The Retreat Centre is off the D976 near Saint Symphorien des Monts, between St Hilaire du Harcouët and Buais. It is in the Commune of Savigny-le-Vieux, and is within an easy drive of the D-Day beaches, Mont St Michel and its bay, as well as the beaches of the Western side of the Cherbourg peninsula. The area is known for its seafood, calvados, cider and cheesemaking.
