No two retreats at Sanctuary are the same, each one guided by the angels. Lorna shares what the people in the room need to hear the most in that moment, allowing healing, learning, and spiritual growth to take place in whatever way God grants it. Sanctuary welcomes all people of all beliefs and none. And when you come here, you are filled with hope and love.

Surrounded by 100 acres of blessed land, Sanctuary’s Georgian-style main house offers a timeless sense of peace to all who visit. With its original fireplaces, staircases, and wooden floorboards dating back 300 years, Kilfane House transports you to a different time and place, hundreds of years into the past. Enjoy the elegant event room, charming pink dining area, period furnishings, and tranquil bedrooms with views of the Irish countryside. All daily meals are prepared by our in-house chef.
Quietly tucked in the courtyard directly beside Kilfane House, Caretaker’s Cottage offers a cozy getaway in the center of Sanctuary. Newly renovated and redesigned, this elegant cottage mixes modern comforts with old world charm, including a full kitchen for guests to utilize as they wish. Only a few steps from Wildflower Tearooms and Sanctuary’s gardens, Caretaker’s Cottage gives you a peaceful place to rest in the heart of Sanctuary.
Located across the lane from Kilfane House, the Glebe is a timeless Georgian home first built in 1807, surrounded by ten acres of peaceful gardens, ancient Irish forest, and blessed land. Enjoy the Glebe’s traditional rooms, delightful country kitchen, cozy library and sitting room, and serene views of Sanctuary. There’s just something special about looking out the window of a country kitchen and seeing the green of Ireland all around you.
Hidden away within the gardens of the Glebe, the Rose Cottage is perhaps the most private and whimsical place to stay on Sanctuary’s grounds. With its playful blue kitchen and bubblegum pink front door, this little cottage makes you feel as if you’ve just stepped into a real-life fairytale.

Here at Sanctuary, we take our gardening very seriously. Our horticulture team grows all our own vegetables in the Georgian walled-garden located just a few steps from Kilfane House. Our harvest changes with the seasons and includes carrots, beets, cabbage, potatoes, radishes, and so much more. Everything we do is sustainable, working in harmony with the land.
Sanctuary’s forest is sacred and blessed, serving as the setting for many of Lorna’s stories in her books. She has been visited in this forest by Archangel Michael, Archangel Gabriel, Angel Hosus, Angel Jimazen, and many other angels. The next time you find yourself at Sanctuary, take a walk through the ancient forest and say a little prayer.
