Come to Quiet Waters. Come meet with God.

Life is busy. Too busy. We all need time away to simply be. Resting, thinking... praying.

At Quiet Waters we provide an opportunity for Christians to seek God in a quiet and safe environment that both enables and encourages the personal freedom to experience God's love and peace. Nestling in the beautiful Waveney Valley along the Norfolk and Suffolk border we offer a warm welcome, wholesome home-cooked meals and a comfortable home to relax in.

Fundraising Appeal

Trustees have launched an appeal focused on the next 50 years at Quiet Waters.

Stunning Views of Quiet Waters

We are very thankful to The Bible Society for the Psalm 23 Garden resources they have put together. We are now developing a trail of the reflections for our guests to discover and enjoy in our gardens, something we have wanted to do for a while. We hope many guests will meet with our God and be blessed through these reflections.

What Our Visitors Say

We have felt God's presence as we have learned to pause and enjoy peace and happiness again. CF, Cambridge

Truly blessed our socks off.
Youth Leaders Group, Cambridge

QW gave us a safe place to be open and receive God's healing hand at a difficult time. We feel more peaceful and refreshed.
RM, Cambridge

Coming to Quiet Waters I feel refreshed and uplifted both physically and at one with God. The peace and faithfulness I gained here with my group was lovely. Church group, London

I have had an amazing time, have been richly blessed, both by your caring, loving attention to detail and by God's presence in this delightful place.
SB, Hemel Hempstead

I felt very well looked after, loved, welcomed and TOTALLY cared for which I find very moving as it's something I don't receive much so THANK YOU all for your outstanding hospitality. AM, Norwich

I arrived with an open mind and leave with an open heart. God found me in my daily meditation, in the song of the trees, the wonderful company, conversation, sharing, delicious food, in the quiet stillness of being, and loving gratitude. IR, Norfolk

You have created an inviting, unobtrusive, gentle space which inevitably invites the presence of God. The essence and sense of God is everywhere and this completely fed into my time with the Lord wherever I was in the house and garden. DP, Cambridge
