Welcome to Servite Friar, the Official Website of the Province of Isles
Initially the large manor house, in its beautiful setting on the banks of the Blackwater River, provided a location for the training and education of Servite Friars. Over the past 30 years its function has changed and it has become a retreat and conference centre.
Each day one of the friars is available for prayer and blessing. Many would wish to pray before the beautiful picture of St Peregrine Laziosi OSM. The picture in the chapel was painted by the late Sr. Aloysius McVeigh. Twice a month, on the first and third Monday evening there is a Mass in honour of St Peregrine to pray for the sick.
