A place of Love, Hope, and Healing

Book your time away - enjoy an oasis. Withdraw into stillness and reflection.

The St. Andrew Retreat House is nestled in the picturesque town of Alliston, Ontario, just an hour north of Toronto. Lovingly restored, this century-old former rectory is surrounded by beautiful gardens — a sacred place where you can experience God’s healing and grace, and find rest for your soul.

Tucked away on a quiet side street, our Retreat House offers a sense of peace and seclusion. Its small, intimate setting allows you the freedom to be still and undisturbed — to reflect, pray, or simply rest.

When you stay with us, you’ll have a private room in one of our two historic homes. Your room is a quiet space, perfect for reading, prayer, or much-needed sleep.

You are welcome to step into our quaint chapel to sit in silent communion with God or discover a cozy corner in one of the upper rooms — a quiet place just for you.

Our Mission

Our mission is to provide a sacred space for Christian Clergy of all denominations to find peace and restoration as they walk within their vocation with our Lord Jesus Christ.

Our Vision

Our vision is to be a healing centre where our Christian Brothers and Sisters of the faith can come to be set apart from the world for a time, in order to rest, be restored and grow in their relationship and intimacy with God, seeking His face.

Our Location

Nestled in Alliston, Ontario — a charming farm community an hour north of Toronto — our retreat house is surrounded by quiet streets, century homes, and gardens, with local restaurants, pubs, and coffee shops just steps away.
