"The centre works perfectly for us, a large group of 50 students and staff, running a mix of centre-led activities and our own. The location itself is beautiful and a tranquil escape from our London campus. The variety of space (outdoor classroom, yurts, inside teaching spaces) meant we were able to run a range of our own activities relating to the inspiring spaces we were in. The team at the centre were fantastic in supporting us with what we wanted to do. We will most certainly be back".
