Castlerigg Manor

Castlerigg Manor

Castlerigg Manor is a Catholic Residential Youth Centre - also often referred to as Catholic Youth Retreat Centres - in Keswick, Cumbria, in the north of England's Lake District National Park. The centre is owned and operated by the Catholic Diocese of Lancaster, although it serves Catholic organisations from much of northern England and beyond.

The ministry of Castlerigg Manor is to run residential retreats/ courses for groups of Catholic young people. These groups come mainly from Catholic schools in the Lancaster, Salford, Liverpool & Shrewsbury Diocese, although occasionally from Catholic parishes as well, including Confirmation groups, youth groups and groups of altar servers. Current estimates suggest that since its establishment in 1969, Castlerigg Manor has worked with over 100,000 young people. The current demand placed upon Castlerigg Manor reflects the growing success of Catholic Youth Work projects.
