| Statement |
Operated in partnership with the Lake District National Park Authority, this Centre occupies a dramatic setting at 300m on a south facing slope of Blencathra near Keswick. The Centre Eco-garden, woodland, ponds and surrounding hill farm provide much interest and inspiration for visitors on a variety of courses. The grounds are frequented by red squirrels and we are close to the Osprey Project at Lake Bassenthwaite. |
