Wales’s most amazing retreat centre
Buckland Hall is an amazing country mansion operating as a venue for
hire for retreats, courses, get-togethers – any type of event
particularly requiring exclusive use for privacy, focus and fun. Graded
as 4-star by the Wales Tourist Board.
Staying at Buckland Hall isn't
like being in a hotel.
It is a unique venue in which you create your own mood, schedule
and space.
Retreats, Training & Courses
Buckland Hall is ideal for retreats involving personal development and transformation.
It is also well used for training events and team building. Because you can opt
for Exclusive Occupancy, you have the potential to create your own mood and atmosphere.
Buckland Hall stands within its own estate and there is no one to disturb your
programme and very little that you could possibly do to disturb others.

Groups can use the Grand Lounge as their main social area or as a meeting
or activity space. There are six other activity rooms which can be set
up just as you need them. Some are particularly suited to body work or
for presentations or voice work.

All meals are wholly vegetarian and we are happy to plan the menu to
suit your specific needs. We aim to use as much local and organic produce
as practical. Lunches and dinners are served to the table “home
style” which enhances the convivial atmosphere. There is a permanent
tea station offering teas, coffees (or not, if you want) as well as a
range of herbal teas. Also, fresh water from our own spring is freely
available at all times – in fact, you will notice the difference
as you bathe in it.

There are magical places within the gardens and
we encourage our clients and guests to take advantage of these areas
for activities, ceremonies
as well as fun and games.
Buckland Hall is the only retreat centre with a Four-star grading – and
it’s well deserved as the bedrooms are excellently appointed with pleasant
and simple décor. All have en-suite bathrooms. There are five family
rooms and these have an extra toilet along with the bathroom – so even
with four delegates, there is no panic in the morning. There are a total of
68 bed-spaces, but we can provide for additional residents, if needed.

We draw our clientele from all parts of UK and
often from abroad and there are good road and rail links particularly via
Abergavenny.

Outdoor activities & Team building
All of the benefits and characteristics of Buckland Hall described above
also apply to events which feature outdoor activities for training,
courses or team
building. Many activities can be carried out within the estate. The Brecon Beacons
is renowned for its range of more adventurous opportunities and we are only minutes
from mountain hiking, abseiling, canoeing, 4x4 tracks, pot-holing etc. If you
want, we can put you in contact with specialists in the area.

Health, Well-being & Holism
For all the same reasons that Buckland Hall works so well for Retreats
(see above), it is especially suitable for courses and programmes offering
training and treatments in complimentary medicine and holistic well-being.
You have complete control of the environment and what your clients
have access to at any time. There need be no distractions or temptations.
Our staff are expert and sensitive and provide an exceptionally supportive mood for guests undergoing physical or emotional therapy.
You can exactly
specify the menu which could involve anything from 100% raw to juice
fasting. Everything is specified by you and we ensure that it is all
provided
with seamless efficiency, but in a way that does not intrude on your feeling
that Buckland is your space.
There are spaces for your guests to relax, to have classes, do bodywork or
yoga and also four rooms that can be set up as individual treatment spaces.
Your guests
will particularly appreciate the spring water for drinking and bathing, the
absolute peace and tranquillity of the mansion and the healing power of the
estate.
Family & Community
Get-togethers
Perhaps, you are looking to hold a family or community get-together or
reunion, but not necessarily with all the splendour and pizzazz of a wedding
or other
celebration. Just as Buckland Hall is perfect for retreats (see above),
so it will cast its magic on your gathering. Gather everyone under one
roof
and just relax, have fun or hold your own programme as you like. You won’t
disturb anyone and no one will disturb you. Children are welcome and are
under your care and supervision.
You won’t have any work to do. We’ll handle all the catering and cleaning, but, as much as possible, we keep out of your main social and activity areas so that you feel totally at ease. We can sleep up to 68 guests in beds, but we can provide extra mattresses and bedding, if needed.
You’ll enjoy walks and activities in the estate or go for trips and excursions to experience the sights and adventure of the Brecon Beacons. Even if it rains, the mansion is so large that no one minds.
