The Centre is available for hire as a whole or as individual rooms for Corporate use, Schools, Scout, Guide or other youth groups, or for private functions, but unfortunately we cannot accept bookings for 18 or 21st birthday parties, nor for groups of teenagers not associated with a national body.
We accept bookings for weekends, daytime and evenings at competitive rates. As we are staffed solely by volunteers, activity bookings are subject to the availability of coaches. There is a charge for car parking during normal opening hours of the Country Park.
