St Mary’s Monastery, Kinnoull, Perth is home to the Redemptorists of Scotland, and functions as a community, ecumenical retreat house and Centre of Spirituality, offering a full programme of courses and retreats all year round.
The impressive neo-gothic building, which has views of the Grampian mountains, opened in 1869, when the Redemptorists first came to Scotland. The church was dedicated to Our Lady of Perpetual Help. It was the first Catholic monastery to be built since the Reformation and was from the beginning used extensively by the Scottish bishops for their clergy retreats.
St Mary’s is still very much devoted to the tradition of offering retreats and has been refurbished recently; it can now take up to 36 residential guests and 50 day guests at a time. They run a popular Holy Week retreat each year, which starts on the Monday of Holy Week and ends on the morning of Holy Saturday, at the price of £425 per person, as well as a Lenten retreat and others.
