The Krishnamurti Centre

Thank you so much for a wonderful and deeply inspiring time. We enjoyed the calm, friendly atmosphere in this beautiful place with its countless opportunities to rest and meet oneself both inside as also outside in a marvelous and enriching natural space. Highly recommended!

I had a really wonderful experience on the Krishnamurti Young Adult's Retreat. The space is clear, quiet and welcoming and there is plenty of time around the scheduled audio and dialogue to explore the grounds and building (library, quiet room, sitting room and your own private room) aswell as talk with other visitors. I can highly recommend to anyone who would is curious about life and the world. The space itself is clean, warm, bright and has beautiful, thoughtful architecture and the staff and volunteers are all friendly and easy to talk to.

A beautiful and magical place where we can connect to ourselves in a deep way. The food is delicious and the bedrooms are incredibly confortable. The staff is very attentive and warm.

It is hard to put in words what this place has come to mean to me and the countless others I met during my time at the centre. Time moved differently during our stay here. Maybe it's the landscape that felt surreal no matter how many times one looked at it. Maybe it's the way the centre itself built. Maybe it is because there is no pressure here to do or be anything other than who one is in the moment. Maybe it is the people, maybe it is the place. Either way, it is one of a kind.

I hope to be able to return to it again someday. I hope you enjoy your time here as much as we did (:

A peaceful stay, met wonderful people, the food was superb. Really impressed with the staff, teachers & volunteers who do a great job to make the place run and keep an atmosphere that allows you to soften. Thought provoking, my head is questioning a lot since the stay.

This centre is a just what it needs to be. A place for study of K's work as well as space for self reflection, discussion and silence if you choose.

I chose to spend a week on retreat, studying, reading and listening to K's work in the video and film archive and the well stocked library of K's work in many languages.

The centre itself is well taken care of, the rooms are basic yet comfortable enough for reflection and personal study should you wish to do so.

The staff and volunteers have put much effort and time into the archives, ensuring that the essence of K's work is communicated clearly.

The whole centre and grounds have the feeling of a special place that has been carefully designed for its purpose.

The on site kitchen provides wholesome vegetarian food and vegan options.

I am grateful to all the staff and volunteers for their efforts in maintaining the centre and it's contents for all.

We wish to express our deep gratitude for a wonderful time at the Krishnamurti Centre.
We had a refreshing and nourishing retreat, unstructured and yet full of discovery and clarity, supported by the beauty of nature all around, and by everyone at the Centre – staff and volunteers and other guests, young and old, more experienced or new beginners.
We enjoyed meeting others at the meals, listening and sharing with them, and we appreciated the possibility of eating in silence when we needed that. We benefited from sitting in the quiet room and walking in the grove and on the many footpaths surrounding Brockwood, from reading and listening to K's teachings, all according to our own rhythm, and most of all from the welcoming and friendly attitude of everyone we met.
Thank you for the opportunity to better understand K's teachings and their place in our life, and for creating such spaciousness, in time and in place, that allowed self-learning from moment to moment.
It took many people over a long time to build this place and to keep it alive and flourishing, responding to the needs of all who come – thank you for sharing it with us!

As always, a place of solitude and interesting conversations. Time to learn more about K’s teachings and to reflect. Walks in nature. Silence if you desire it. Offers a place to replenish yourself when feeling depleted.

The place is incredible, in full connection with the vast surrounding nature.
Quiet and peaceful environment, tasty food with quality ingredients, attentive staff and very good accommodation conditions.
The perfect place to slow down, reconnect with yourself and nature and question yourself about deep topics in life.

Simply an outstanding retreat centre. Beautiful surroundings and the building itself is an example of truly inspired architecture. A perfect place for contemplating, freely and without dogma, the basic themes of life; alone in silence or together in open, explorative dialogs.
A genuinely friendly atmosphere and good, hearty vegetarian food completes the picture.

A lovely, quiet place surrounded by inspiring nature. Wonderful and caring staff members. Great food, comfortable bed.

It’s always a pleasure stay at the Centre: the quiet kindness that surrounds everything takes you out from our crazy world for a while, and it helps to center yourself again. Thank you to keep it alive

I had the most wonderful week of my life at the Krishnamurti Gathering 2023. The people were so kind and lovely. The place is beautiful and so nice for a retreat. The food was so delicious and so healthy ! Thanks to all the team 🙏

I thoroughly enjoyed my retreat here and would highly recommend the place for anyone who not only wants to step away from the hectic place of life but also to delve into the teachings of the late, great Jiddhu Krishnamurti. The place itself is so peaceful and provides one with the space and opportunity to enquire into the self. I found here a deeper connection with myself but also with the wonderful people who this place seems to attract.

A very quiet place, ideal for inquiry. You will meet excellent people there.

Brockwood Park is a wonderful place. One finds there everything that is not available in our crowded and chaotic societies.
One meets people who are open and have worked with themselves, and willing to share all fundamental questions with everybody. There, one may find out the clue to what really is missing in our consciousness.

A wonderful place away from the modern chaos of everything. My silent 2 day retreat was very 'destressing' and listening to the teaching really helped tweak my world view positively. I would note that the teachings can be quite 'intense' and does require your absolute attention to get a benefit so one should familiarise themselves with the teachings prior.

The food was very nice and healthy, the nature walk was serene, and the silent room had such a peaceful energy to it. I would recommend to anyone looking to take a step within.

A wonderful, quiet and hospitable environment for those who are interested in furthering their understanding of Jiddu Krishnamurti's life and philosophy. Excellent vegetarian food and a relaxing stay .

A place of self reflection and quietness. Lots of lovely woodlands to walk around. Interesting people to talk with. Very nice room, opens onto garden. Library of books and videos etc. for the Teachings.

I was sceptical that after close to 30 years K's spirit was still alive here. And yet...it felt like he was in the room or just coming around the corner...a testament to the people who have kept true self-enquiry alive here through the decades.
