Price
Prices start from £420 per day for dry hire of the lodge but contact us to discuss your requirements as we are a very versatile site with a wide variety of potential uses.
Sustainability
Our Victorian building was retrofitted with solar panels and rain water harvesting and our new eco lodge was built with solar panels, underground heat source pumps and many other sustainability measures. We can provide tours of the site to explore the sustainability measures in place as we are primarily a climate and environmental education centre.
Accessibility
The lodge is all on one level and users can park directly outside if they have accessibility requirements but there are gravel paths on site, limited parking and the traditional building has stair only access to the upstairs classrooms so please do call or arrange a visits to discuss your requirements.

"I recommend using the venue booker! Jenny was absolutely amazing; from sourcing a number of venues to getting me and my event booked in successfully. She was very patient and friendly even when I asked her 1001 questions and changed the details of my event, she was happy to help. She was very fast at replying and on job with chasing up venues. Very good and professional service. Thank you!!! Even through the pandemic, jenny made my event possible. I would use the venue booker again. "
Rochelle Cassell , Private Event
The Venue Booker provided us with a fantastic selection of venues to view for the two events we enquired about – each of these met our brief, several offered something really special and most of them came with discounted rates that we would not have been able to achieve on our own. The service is free of charge and Jenny is friendly and helpful. We will definitely use them again.
