Enough clothing for up to ten days.
The mean temperature is held at 19 degrees centigrade.
Only long stay meditators will be able to use the washing machine.
You can, of course, wash you clothes by hand any time. Outdoor wear to guard against the often inclement Welsh weather.

Please wear full length skirts and loose fitting trousers.
Our attitude should respect the vow of celibacy we all take.

Bring sheet, duvet cover and pillow cases.
We supply duvets that normally cover all season but, if you know yourself to be sensitive to cold, please bring an extra sleeping bag or blanket/duvet.
