Meditation and Buddhist retreats

Welcome to Madhyamaka Buddhist Centre

Madhyamaka Centre is home to a Mahayana Buddhist community of lay and ordained practitioners. The centre, only fifteen miles from the ancient city of York, nestles beneath the beautiful Yorkshire Wolds close to the market town of Pocklington.

The centre is an ideal place to visit if you would like to learn about meditation. We offer evening meditation classes as well as introductory day courses, relaxing Weekend Meditation Retreats and longer in-depth courses, all of which offer insights into how to develop a meditation practice.

If you would like to learn more about Buddhism, Madhyamaka Centre provides a number of courses in Buddhist studies as well as regular retreats where one can deepen one’s experience of Buddhist practice.

You can sample life in our Buddhist community by joining us for a week on a working visit.

For schools and other community groups we offer visits to the centre including a talk about meditation and tours of the house and grounds.

The centre is open to the public for most of the year and everyone is welcome to visit.

Two of our most popular features with visitors are our Gift Shop and our World Peace Café. For more information, please click on the links below:

Madhyamaka Centre is a member of NKT-IKBU, an international association of over 1,000 Kadampa Buddhist centres that circle the globe.

We also have a new Bed and Breakfast called The Wolds Retreat. To visit the B&B website please click on the link below:
