Anyone wishing to stay in Skanda Vale for more than one night will be allowed to do so at the discretion of the Swamis` Council. Ladies should normally come accompanied by another lady if not coming with their families.

Skanda Vale is an Ashram (Monastery) dedicated to providing an environment where people can improve their link with God. Anyone seen to be misusing their stay here either to pursue relationships, find a partner, or promote their own enterprises will be asked to leave.

Skanda Vale supports families and family life. We will not allow people to stay in Skanda Vale at the expense of neglecting their responsibilities in the outside world.

Pilgrims who are staying with us are expected to stay within the Ashram grounds, during the duration of their stay, and not to use Skanda Vale as a base from which to go sight-seeing.

Devotees are asked to complete the form below and post it at least 3 weeks before their proposed visit to: Swamis` Council, The Community of the Many Names of God, Skanda Vale, Llanpumsaint, Carmarthen SA33 6JT, Wales, UK. (If possible, please write in English.) We will normally respond after the weekly Swamis` Council meeting. Unfortunately we cannot accept e-mail applications at the moment.
