CHITHURST BUDDHIST MONASTERY
How to Book
(Updated on 9 April 2025)
The men's and women's accommodations are located separately in the monastery, so bookings are also made separately. Please note that we are unable to guarantee single rooms for any guests.​​
Female Guests​
We are open to receive new guests in Aloka Cottage, the guest house for women at Cittaviveka.
The minimum stay policy is 7 days; new guests can stay from 7 days up to maximum 2 weeks, depending on the situation.
Guests who have been supportive during previous visits since 2023 may be able to stay for one month, in rare occasions even for longer.
At the moment we are booking guests only for the time until September 2025.
Guest applications are only done through the application form for female guests on this website, never by telephone and never directly through the guestmonk.
​
Male Guests
​
Male guest stays are currently available for a three-night minimum duration. In order to reduce the number of cancelled reservations, we do not accept booking requests more than two months in advance. For example, if you would like to request a stay beginning on August 10, please submit your request on or after June 10.
