Bertram Conference Center

Bertram Conference Center is a peaceful meeting and retreat venue in Duxbury, Massachusetts, operated by the Society of St. Margaret. Set within a welcoming convent campus near Duxbury Bay, the centre provides practical space for organisers planning day meetings, group retreats, workshops, study sessions and intimate celebrations.

The venue includes three usable spaces, with the largest meeting room accommodating up to 70 people. Two rooms feature gas fireplaces, creating a comfortable setting for reflective gatherings, team discussions and smaller conferences. A spacious deck offers an additional area for breaks, informal conversations and outdoor use in pleasant weather. Groups can also make use of on-site parking and a kitchen, either preparing their own meals or arranging catering independently.

Bertram Conference Center has hosted a varied selection of gatherings, including church vestry retreats, university groups, specialist classes, healing retreats, dance sessions, yoga classes, family reunions and wedding receptions. This makes it particularly suitable for organisers looking for a quiet, flexible venue rather than a large commercial conference complex.

The centre can be booked as a day venue, while groups needing overnight accommodation can stay in the Society of St. Margaret’s nearby guest houses. These include the Farmhouse and St. Marina’s, offering simple bedrooms, shared facilities and communal areas for residential retreats. Guests may also enjoy the surrounding grounds and access to a private beach on Duxbury Bay.

With its calm atmosphere, adaptable rooms and retreat-focused hospitality, Bertram Conference Center is suited to organisers arranging thoughtful group experiences, faith-based gatherings, educational programmes, private functions and small corporate or community events.
