ACCOMMODATION
Please read Staying at Tushita Guidelines before considering staying here.
Tushita offers the following accommodation options for students attending our
courses and group retreats (individuals wanting to do a personal retreat please visit: Program > Personal Retreat):
-
single rooms with private (Indian squat-style) toilet, shared showers
(limited number)
-
single rooms with shared toilet/showers (limited number)
-
small dormitories (3 - 4 beds) with attached toilet or shared toilet/showers
- one big dormitory (14 beds) with shared toilet/showers
We are a meditation centre with nuns and monks staying here, so couples
and men/women must have separate accommodation. Friends and family of
the same gender are strongly encouraged to stay in separate rooms to
help support silence and focus on the course/retreat.
If you come for one of our Introduction to Buddhism courses you cannot
request a particular type of room. At Tushita we have a tried and
tested system and this is how it works: when you register for a course,
your name is added to a list. We use the numerical order of this list
to allocate rooms at 1pm on the first day of the course. This means
that early registration gives you a greater chance of getting a single
room.
After many years of running these courses, we have found this
system to be the fairest and most efficient; please do not put us in
the position of having to say no by asking for special accommodation!
If you are elder, physically challenged or have medical problems please
let us know, and we will do our best to accommodate your needs.
MAY ALL BEINGS BE HAPPY!
