Anew Retreats

Service Organisation | UNITED KINGDOM

Our small and intimate Anew Retreats are hosted at the charming Harmony House in Stillingfleet, York. Harmony House, with parts dating back to the 17th century, has a rich history with the local church. Nestled in miles of peaceful countryside yet just a short drive from the vibrant historic city of York, Harmony House blends historic charm with modern comforts. We believe it’s the perfect place for you to relax and reconnect with God anew.

 

We have lovely selection of themed retreats throughout the year, and if one of the dates doesn't work for you, you can arrange your own personal or group self-led retreat at any time, depending upon availability of course.

What our Anew Retreat guests say;

Jenna says:

I want to personally thank you for your wonderful hospitality during my
discovery retreat stay at the Harmony House.

Wish I was still there, after returning home  today! It has given me great insight and
information I was looking for. It has been a pleasure from start to finish! 100% loveliness throughout. It felt peaceful and relaxing, and
the itinerary helped me to process and know what to expect.

I would honestly say to anybody that is looking to discover more about God and feel relaxed and comfortable in superb company, this is the retreat to visit.

Kindness and lots of fun along the way.

Anew Discovery Retreat - March 2024

 

Janice from our Spring Rertreat 2023 says,

Overall Experience

Wow, just blown away with the location and the accommodation. Adele was a fabulous host and made you feel very welcome. Everything was 1st class, from the quality of the furniture and decor to the food. Breakfast was amazing, plenty of it, with a good choice and all delicious. The bed was comfortable and the room was spacious and relaxing. The shower was fantastic, good pressure and able to control the temperature easily. The bathroom was very modern and very clean. The location was stunning, so quiet and peaceful and yet within easy travelling distance of York and all the attractions there. I would definitely recommend to anyone thinking about booking here – you will not be disappointed!

 

Mark from our Winter Retreat 2023 says;

Our stay at Harmony House proved to be a time of refreshment and relaxation. Rather than opting for just taking a few days away my wife and I chose to participate in one of the occasional retreats Harmony House provide.

The attention to detail was appreciated, the accommodation very comfortable indeed, the food excellent and the hosts enchanting.

I would highly recommend Harmony House to anyone looking for a comfortable location to explore the area in general; but to anyone needing time and space to reflect on life and faith, I cannot commend Harmony House enough for creating an oasis for body, mind and soul.

Thank you Adele and Ros.

 

Mary from our Winter Retreat 2023 saysI am still processing all that happened for me, as I got ill flu then busy when I got back home. Winter will not look the same to me again after the depth of teaching! I appreciate the gentle mix of those lovely ladies heading the devotionals, the gorgeous food and the conversation of the other participants!
My 'bridge' time was amazing and I am working through the meaning of what that means for me! All will be revealed soon!! 
Adele and Ros; A big thank you for the most wonderful blessing at Harmony House winter retreat...I felt the Lord's presence right from getting there! I needed the space to just be and listen. Song of Songs 8: 5-6 has really stayed with me. I needed to hear and reflect on how much God loves me too!
I will be back!! 

 

Linda from our Winter Retreat 2023 says; This “Winter” retreat was just what we needed!
Time to spend in God’s presence, reflecting upon His word, listening for His voice, receive prayer ministry…. Amazing!

We were warmly welcomed by Adele and Ros; our room was spotless and comfy; tasty cooked breakfasts and evening meals were gratefully received along with many other small touches that made Harmony House feel like home. Thank you.

Highly recommended!

 

Chris and Peter from our Nov 2022 Anew Retreat say, "We have just enjoyed our second visit to Harmony House, this time for a retreat.
A beautiful place to go when you need time out from being a “Martha” to just sit and be a “Mary”.
Everything about the place was excellent. The accommodation, the meals, the resources and the ministry provided by Adele and Heather.
Thank you both. We are looking forward to our next visit."

 

Jess (personal self-led retreat) says "My Name is Jess, Ive been married to my hubby (who is a C of E Vicar), for 18 years and we share the ministry; therefore we are pretty much in each others company 24/7.
It is very difficult to separate personal space out from parish life, when your office is in your house and your friends are your parishioners and when you live at the other end of the country from most of your relatives, you want to spend any holiday time with them.
I was asked by two separate christians wether I had ever considered spending time away from my family and parish, where I could just focus on myself with God…I hadn’t, so I remembered my sister had recommended Harmony House as a retreat and booked straight away for 2 nights..it was perfect.
Thank you to Adele and Hannah for their discreet love and care, Godly words of encouragement, prayer ministry and for giving me space and fabulous food!
I would highly recommend a stay."

 

Anne Young and Julie Parker (personal self-led retreat) say; "We had such a wonderful time at Harmony House! We stayed for two nights and it was such a blessing. Our room was really comfortable and beautifully decorated. Breakfast was excellent, very tasty and filling. We also thoroughly enjoyed the afternoon tea - so filling we couldn't eat it all! WE enjoyed going for a walk on the beautiful surrounding countryside. We both came home refreshed and we will Definitely return! Thank you so much for everything"

 

Emma (summer 2023) says, "So sad to be leaving this place behind. 3 days & nights of resting and refreshing and reawakening in what can only be described as a little piece of heaven right here in our midst in a tranquil picturesque village just outside York. ????????????????????☀️????????????❤️
