Title
Welcome to the Othona Community at Burton Bradstock
Description
Our rambling stonebuilt house sits in 7 acres of wild and wonderful grounds, on the unspoilt coast of West Dorset. We have wide sea views and a 10 minute walk down through woods and fields to Chesil Beach. A place to re-charge your batteries – physical, emotional, mental and spiritual. A place just to be.
Up to 8 of us live on site and extend hospitality for as many as 35 visitors at a time. Newcomers are just as welcome as regulars. The atmosphere is very informal.
The key word is acceptance. As a visitor you can be part of the community, not just an onlooker. Sharing meals and jobs and jokes, gifts and ideas, we find that unnecessary barriers between people gradually come down. A sense of belonging grows, a sense of being appreciated and needed for who you are. Without this welcoming heart a community would curl up and die.
