Retreat-Holidays
Malta: Dates price and flights
Dates:
Tuesday 11 - Tuesday 18 August 2009
to make your individually guided retreat as part of a group
or
at other dates to suit you, subject to availability
Prices:
£749 - NO SINGLE SUPPLEMENT - for 11-18 August 2009.
For other dates, ask us to quote as air-fares vary considerably with the dates and departure airport chosen.
August is high season, so it is often cheaper at other times. Low-season prices start from £550 for a week.
What is included:
Flights and taxes; transfers between airport and the retreat house; full board in en suite room for seven nights; wine and filtered water at table; tea and coffee; the services of your retreat guide.
For the week of 11-18 August, the services of the retreat leader.
What is not included:
Travel between home and UK airport; personal expenses; fuel surcharges; food and drink on the journey; drinks other than those specified above; telephone; taxis; gratuities (we suggest 40 euros for the week, ie about £4 per day); insurance: valid insurance is obligatory. Pilgrim Travel can offer insurance cover, subject to conditions. The norm in retreat-houses is that cleaners do not intrude into your room during your stay.
Flights:
The price quoted for the week of
11-18 August 2009 is based on a Heathrow departure, subject to availability.
If you would prefer to fly from Birmingham, Exeter, Luton, Newcastle or Norwich, ask us to quote. There may or may not be a price difference - it depends on the air-fares available at the time.
Accessibility
At Mount St Joseph, there is a lift to all floors and two of the bedrooms are adapted for disabled users.
The grounds of the house are fairly flat, but there is a drop of about three feet from the main, unfenced path (see photo, left), so it would not be suitable for someone who was unsteady on their feet. The ten-minute walk into Mosta town is down quite a steep hill and the terrain is quite rough, even in the streets of the town.
We regret that we are unable to accept the responsibility of looking after people who know before they travel that they have serious problems of health or mobility.
