Hiking

A very peaceful part of the Charnwood Area. Fantastic Architecture, stunning grounds & a real sense of being somewhere special.
Not just for the faithful!

Mount St Bernard Abbey is a Roman Catholic, Trappist monastery near Coalville, Leicestershire, England, founded in 1835 in the parish of Whitwick and now in that of Charley. The abbey was the first permanent monastery to be founded in England since the Reformation and is the sole Trappist house in England. The monks brew the only Trappist beer in Britain.

Such a calm place to visit. The monks here brew their own ale which is delicious!
