Prices to stay at Marpa House from 1st April 2026
New accommodation prices from 1st April 2026
We review our prices at Marpa House annually and do our very best to keep any increases to a minimum. As a result of this review, from 1 April 2026, our accommodation prices will be slightly increased, broadly in line with inflation, while meal prices will remain unchanged.
This will be only our second price increase since 2022, despite the significant rise in the cost of living and ongoing maintenance costs for an old building.
Our aim is to ensure that Marpa House is as accessible as possible to all without compromising your experience during your stay.
For those of you who are unable to afford a retreat at Marpa House, there is still time (until 28th February) to apply for funding through the Marpa House Retreat Scheme, which is designed to make retreats accessible to everyone, regardless of financial circumstances. Click here for more details.
Updated rates, effective 1 April 2026, are detailed below.
Thank you for your continued support of Marpa House, and we look forward to seeing you soon.
