| ***** | If you are looking for beauty, peace, healing, inspiration or just want to enjoy the scenery, the Lourdes Shrine is a wonderful destination. Although Lourdes in Litchfield is a Catholic shrine, all people are welcome to come and spend time amidst the beauty and serenity of the Grotto and surrounding hills. The Grotto Cafe has some of the most delicious and affordable snacks and meals in Litchfield County, and there is a gift shop as well. Whether I have an hour or a day, the Lourdes Shrine is one of my most favorite places to visit. | Female older than 55 | 10-03-08 |
| ***** | Surrounded by nature, the sound of birds, flowing streams, and the beauty of flowers and lush trees-Lourdes in Litchfield is a place to experience one of Connecticut's most beautiful spots. You will want to go back again and again. In fact, why not experience Lourdes during every season! There is always something happening there, and the Montfort Fathers are truly one of a kind! Enjoy! | Female between 26 and 55 | 10-04-08 |
| ***** | At the Lourdes Shrine all are welcome.....the atmosphere is
one of beauty, deep peace and acceptance. After a walk around
the spacious and beautiful grounds stop by the Grotto Cafe to
enjoy a delicious, homemade, meal or snack. The Gift Shop is
also located in Pilgrim Hall.
What a wonderful way to spend a day or a few hours in any
season! I have been coming here for many years and never
tire of the blessings and hospitality of this place. | Female older than 55 | 10-06-08 |
