Accommodation
Accommodation at BKMC - Staying at the Centre
Bodhisattva Centre offers a beautiful and peaceful setting and provides ideal conditions for meditation and retreats. It is a 40 bedroom Grade II listed building set in nearly two acres of grounds. We are located just within the border of Hove. Brighton city centre is a 10-15 minute walk and the seafront is 5 minutes by foot.
To gain maximum benefit and to be fully immersed in our meditation retreats, many people choose to stay at the Centre. We offer comfortable single, twin and dormitory accommodation with recently upgraded bathroom facilities. Bedding and towels as well as tea and coffee making facilities are provided in single and twin rooms. If you are staying in a dormitory, please bring a sleeping bag and towel (a sheet and pillow is provided).
Meditation Rooms for Courses
Meditation classes, day and weekend courses are held in one of our two beautiful meditation rooms. One of the meditation rooms houses a striking 8ft Buddha Shakyamuni statue as its focal point.
Meals & refreshments for courses
Lunch is provided on day courses. All meals are provided during weekend courses and retreat. Meals are vegetarian, home cooked and renowned for being delicious! During breaks our World Peace Café is open for you to purchase drinks and snacks.
Peace Garden
Despite being located within easy walking distance of Central Brighton, our large gardens ensure that Bodhisattva Centre is a haven of quiet and peace in the city.
Parking
Free parking is available at Bodhisattva Centre for guests.
Mobile phones
It is fine for you to bring your phone to the retreat but please remember to switch it off in the meditation sessions!
Please note: Since Bodhisattva Centre is a Buddhist Centre, visitors are asked not to drink alcohol or smoke on the premises. We also ask the visitors not to play musical instruments or sound systems on the property.
