Our Aims
To provide a facility which will enable our guests to APPRECIATE CREATION, ENJOY RECREATION, & ENCOURAGE REGENERATION.
CREATION: Set in magnificent surroundings, the centre provides an opportunity to enjoy their beauty, and through it, acknowledge the Creator.
(We believe in God the Father who created the world)
RECREATION: Mountains, lakes, open space, all provide an opportunity to relax, take stock of life, try new activities and, where necessary, start afresh along life’s road.
(We believe in Jesus his Son who redeemed the world)
REGENERATION: An opportunity to recharge the physical, emotional and spiritual batteries, and to deepen relationships with fellow group members and with God.
(We believe in his Holy Spirit who gives new life to the people of God)

We are now taking bookings from adult or family groups for the months of December, January and February.
