Welcome to Emmaus House

Many people ask us why we are called 'Emmaus' House?  Well, the name comes directly from an account in the Gospel of Luke where we encounter two people on their journey on the road to Emmaus, and our hope is to be with people today as they journey both humanly and spiritually. We aim to provide an integrated approach to spirituality in a safe and homely environment and, whilst we ourselves are based in the Catholic/Christian tradition, we welcome people of all faiths or of none.

As well as a Full Programme of retreats, courses and workshops, Emmaus House provides excellent Facilities for meetings, conferences and private functions.  We are only fifteen minutes away from the motorway network and can also be easily reached by public transport.  For those travelling from a little further afield, Bristol Airport is approximately a twenty-minute taxi journey away. Limited parking is available, although disabled visitors are encouraged to contact us in advance so that we can arrange reserved spaces.

The autumn edition of our newsletter, Emmaus Journey, can be viewed here.
