The YMCA National Centre is one of the largest outdoor activity facilities in the country. Our core mission has always been to help people build a future and we work with schools, youth and corporate groups from all over Europe in helping them achieve their learning and development objectives through outdoor activity.
The Centre is located in an area of outstanding beauty in the heart of the English Lake District. We have access to over 400 acres of private woodland estate bordered by a mile of Windermere shoreline and provide accommodation, catering and over 50 water and land based activities on site.
