Accommodation can be booked for periods from a few days to a whole year.

Life in College

Sabbatical visitors are welcome to participate in as many aspects of the life of the College as they wish. They can attend worship in the College chapel and in the nearby parish church; use the excellent library and computer facilities and join in social events.

Study Opportunities

You may wish to take the opportunity of your time at College to study. You can pursue your own projects making use of the College’s extensive and up-to-date theological library and computer facilities. You may also wish to receive some individual tuition or to attend suitable short courses and these can be arranged in consultation with the academic staff.
