“Legacy Retreats - a project of Machon Yaakov - is a top tier program for its students, set in the grand isolation of the British countryside. The program provides a week of concentrated Torah learning with both Machon Yaakov's in-house and guest teachers. There is something indescribable about learning in the atmosphere of a grand English country house, with views rolling down to the Bristol Channel, and being able to focus on the Torah with no distraction. I had the privilege of participating in this year's retreat, and I have to say I found the experience unexpectedly refreshing on a personal level. The combination of high-level students, Rabbi Jacobs and his unusually gifted staff, and the other-worldly space created a special opportunity. I cannot recommend it highly enough. I certainly hope I am invited again...”
