We offer free, simple, accommodation for genuine pilgrims who
wish to attend the early morning and other poojas.
Please telephone in advance on 01559 384 421
to request pilgrim accommodation. (If you decide not to stay
please let us know by telephone or by informing reception as
soon as possible so that accommodation can be reallocated).
Accommodation is allocated according to availability.
Unaccompanied ladies please seek prior advice in writing.
Children must be accompanied by their own parents at all
times.
Accommodation is not available to anyone living within 25
miles of the Ashram.
Pilgrims who are staying
with us are expected to stay within the Ashram grounds, during
the duration of their stay, and not to use Skanda Vale as a base
from which to go sight-seeing.
If your group is larger than 10 please go to the
Groups Pilgrimage Page
If you wish to stay longer than one night please go to the
Staying longer Page
If you are in a group it is possible that
you will be split up and have to share accommodation with other
people of your own sex.
Devotees are requested to refrain from practising any type of
therapy or healing whilst at Skanda Vale, rather they are
encouraged to focus on developing their relationship with God.
Residents are required to attend all the poojas in the
Subramanium Temple without exception. Long-term residents are
also required to provide four hours work in the Ashram each day.
