Therefore in these lovely gleaming woods,
With joy that’s marred by few concerns,
Where mental wandering will cease,
I will remain in blissful solitude.
— Shantideva, The Way of the Bodhisattva

The Lindholme Estate has 180 acres of land and is surrounded by the Hatfield Moor: 3,500 acres of wilderness. The Moor is perfect for walking and quiet reflection; it is rare to see another human being but wildlife is plentiful!
Buddhist Monastic Support
We have been fortunate in recent years to have a considerable monastic presence with Lama Öser as our resident Lama to help guide beginners and inspire us all. We have also been graced by visits from Lama Tenzin and a two-month residency of the accomplished Khen Rinpoche. We hope with Chökyi Nyima Rinpoche’s blessing the conditions continue for these most fortunate circumstances to prevail. If requested, our monastic sangha (Sanskrit for spiritual community) is always willing to offer guidance to resident practitioners.Gomde UK has a Buddhist library of English-language Dharma books and some rare Tibetan texts brought here by Lama Öser.
