Set in the shadow of the Ancient Parish and Borough Church of St Mary, Harrow on the Hill, just ten miles from central London, Church House provides the space for small groups (up to 10 people) to enjoy a quiet time together. It provides overnight or day time only accommodation, for retreats, & meetings of small groups.
School parties are also welcome.

St Mary’s Church stands at the top of historic Harrow Hill. The church has crowned the Hill for over 9oo years and is visible from miles around. Beyond the churchyard stretch woods and open fields, the ancient school and the narrow streets of the old village.

Adjacent to the church stands St Mary’s Church House and the vicarage. The vicarage is a Georgian building and St Mary’s Church House is a Victorian annex built between the vicarage and the old stables; which now house the Parish Office.

St Mary’s Church House has been converted into a small retreat/conference centre providing self-catering accommodation for 10-12 people. The house offers a quiet atmosphere away from the bustle of modern life and yet is within very easy reach of Central London via the Metropolitan Tube line station, 10 minutes walk away.

For school groups, Church House makes a perfect location for visits to the galleries and museums of Central London, and the rich variety of theatres.

Church House is also available to clergy families at reduced cost for holidays, during August.

St Mary’s Church House can accommodate between 10-12 people overnight and up to 20 during the day.
