Set in the beautiful Chiltern Hills at Woodrow near Amersham, and in its own 24 acres of grounds, this lovely old 17th century Manor House, once occupied by Oliver Cromwell’s family during the Civil War, provides excellent opportunities for team building, indoor and outdoor training.
The House is owned by the London Federation of Clubs for Young People, a charity which provides dedicated support and services to some 30,000 children and young people through its member clubs which are often situated in the poorest and most deprived areas of London. The facilities are also made available to a wide range of local community organisations and voluntary groups at reasonable charges or in turn for some service. In recent years, as well as the many schools and educational bodies, the House has provided superb activity holidays for chronically sick children.
The flexible approach and comfortable surroundings encourage young people to learn new skills, build confidence and share their time in an enjoyable way, and will always bring out the best in our visitors.
It is not surprising therefore that many of the 5000 annual visitors come from schools use this attractive and well equipped centre to deliver their programmes and enjoy the full Woodrow experience.
