Description was written before the event

Garden of Love is a weekend retreat for married couples regardless of their life circumstances. The retreat's concept is straightforward: relationships need time and attention, and this doesn't require grand gestures - simply talking together and being present goes a long way.

The programme is structured around couples without group work. During the weekend, there is an opportunity to book time for spiritual care, counselling support, and prayer. Childcare is not provided at the retreat. Teaching is based on a Christian understanding of marriage between man and woman, and participants are expected to be committed to this perspective.

The price is 326 euros per married couple and includes full board with your own bed linens (toilet and shower in shared facilities). For an additional fee, you can get a room with a private bathroom (20 €/night/couple) and bed linens and towels (15 €/person). Accommodation is allocated in order of registration and billed according to actual occupancy.

Registration by 14.9.2026 - those registering later will be charged an additional fee of 10 euros per person.
