The Convent: facilities
The Convent is equipped with a variety of teaching rooms for courses, seminars, lessons and music practice. There are a variety of musical instruments including two baby grand pianos (a Bösendorfer and a Kawai), a restored 1801 harpsichord and a large choice of Orff instruments.

The church has 70 seats (max 99). It has been adapted and equipped so as to accommodate conferences and concerts. The cloister has an outstanding acustic and in the summer is used to put on concerts and other artistic shows. The surrounding cloister corridors are suited for art shows or simply to host presentation posters relevant to the ongoing conference.

The length of courses can be flexible, from one day study groups to seminars and conferences lasting one week or more. All didactic activities are addressed at different levels of interest and ability. These can include introductory courses for children, in depth courses for teachers, formative workshops for advanced students and scholars, specialist instrumental courses for musicians. The Convent is situated within more than seven acres of grounds with centuries old oak trees, orchards and meadows. A perfect setting in which to enjoy time set aside for relaxation or study.
