Driving up the winding wooded lane to Chantmarle, you enter a world where historic
charm, peace, spiritual inspiration and contemporary convenience blend beautifully
together to offer all the needs a Christian Residential Resource Centre could possibly have. The 13th century Manor House, cottages, bungalows and dormitories are nestled in 100 acres of beautiful Dorset countryside, Thomas Hardy country, and whether you are alone, a family or a group of up
to 268, we have the facilities to cater for your every need. If you are looking
for a beautiful retreat, a luxurious get-away or a special seminar place full of history, our 13th century Manor House is just what you need; if you are simply looking for a peaceful, inspirational and spiritually active place for your church
to hold seminars, prayer meetings, courses or just to be together, then we have accommodation to suit every need. And if you just want to get away for a relaxing holiday in a beautiful setting, then our self-catering cottages will be just the thing for you. From arranging that meeting, big or small and prayer in groups or alone, to indoor or outdoor recreation after a hard day’s work; from quiet contemplation to books, coffee or the internet; from spending time alone, with the family or friends, to the freedom of a child-friendly room, we have it all.
Whatever your needs, Chantmarle is the place to relax, unwind and meet with God in a setting that’s historic, beautiful, peaceful and
very welcoming. We look forward to meeting you soon!
