Vaughan Park Anglican Retreat Centre

Sadly, it has gone down since my last visit over a year ago. Everything is looking very shabby, cleaning is not up to par and food ok. It's still a beautiful location, though.

Just back home after spending three days at Vaughan Park with my colleagues from UoA, doing a postgrad writing retreat. A superb location with quiet and stillness in the atmosphere for anyone who is serious about doing research. The food, the accommodation and the team at such a location are just right for research and reflection. Will come back again in future.

We had a 24-hr mother-daughter retreat + meals at Vaughan Park and had a beautiful time. The place is spacious, clean and comfortable. We loved the simplicity and the exquisite views. The beach is such a joy for walking and swimming. It offered us the perfect time and space for connecting with one another and also for contemplative inner spiritual work. We thoroughly enjoyed the chapel with its splendid architecture and view as well. We met lovely people at the Centre in communal encounters which were very life-giving. The food was nutritious and tasty. We highly recommend this place as the perfect spot to rejuvenate your spirit.

Beautiful place with sweet-smelling flowers. Great view of the beach and a very quiet place to relax.

Had a lovely weekend. The food was wonderful and the catering thoughtful. Some challenges moving around the site with a walking frame.
