study leave in UK?

I am wondering about taking 2 weeks of study leave in the UK, September 19-30.

I am due to give a conference paper (Emerging church 10 years on? a longitudinal study) at an Ecclesiology and Ethnography conference at Durham September 20-22. I am then due to input to Masters and D.Missiology students at Cliff College on Sept 27-28. So I’m looking for somewhere quiet to study (and walk) in the Northish of England in between.

I have a few thoughts (connect with Church Army Sheffield Centre or Lindisfarne), but thought I’d ask if there are any UK readers who might have suggestions.

Thoughts?

  1. Steve, I recently spent a week with the Northumbrian Community on a Mission Leadership retreat.We shared in the daily offices of the Community, as well as interacting with George Lings from the Church Army and Roy Searle from the Community. The insights we received from George and Roy,the daily rhythm of the Community life, allied with the beauty of the area was a potent combination.
