Why Barnstondale
Barnstondale has flexibility to meet your needs
The residential experience is a key component to any group and provides opportunities that will stick with you for many years to come.
At Barnstondale, young people discover previously undiscovered skills and aptitudes. Suddenly, they’re able to think quickly and creatively; they collaborate willingly and can see the purpose behind collaboration.
Groups such as the Scouts and Cubs, faith groups and uniformed groups are all welcome to visit the site and take part in programmes that are tailored to meet the objectives of each group and ensure all leave the centre having a better understanding of themselves and made memories for life along the way.
