Low Gillerthwaite Field Centre - Booking Conditions

Low Gillerthwaite Field Centre - Booking Conditions and fees

LGFC is available as a base for Field Studies, Outdoor and Social activities. The Centre can accommodate a group of 40 people in 5 dormitories of 4, 4, 8, 10 and 14 bunks (see About page).

A group of 26 or more may have 'exclusive use', i.e. we would not book another group in alongside you (although individual Association members retain a right to accommodation, subject to child protection issues). Smaller groups and individuals are also welcome on the proviso that they are prepared to share facilities.

The Wolfson study room is available to Centre users at no extra charge, but please arrange with the Warden first.
