The First & Second Orders of the Society of Saint Francis

People seeking to arrange accommodation at one of our friaries should be aware that many of our houses are small local domestic-style houses with limited facilities for guests or retreatants.

Some friaries can offer guests hospitality – please check first before making any arrangements.
