FACILITIES AND ACCOMMODATIONNEW BATHROOM FACILITIES! ... click here for photos...
The Centre is equipped to accommodate up to 22 people, but can be equally comfortable for small groups.  
The dining room (the old farmhouse kitchen) has a large stone built hearth and the original slate flagstone floor. An efficient solid fuel fire quickly heats the room in colder weather. Adjacent to this is the drying room (originally the dairy) where, with efficient fan heaters, wet gear can easily be dried out; and with two large stainless steel sinks it also serves as the washing up area. 
The large kitchen is well equipped, and was recently totally refurbished. It is equipped with stainless steel units and work surfaces and has a gas range, griddle and electric oven, grill, fridge, freezer, microwave and electric kettles. There are cooking utensils to suit large as well as small group cooking, together with crockery and cutlery for a full centre. The four bedrooms are named after the mountains they face: 
The newly fitted wooden bunks have blankets and pillows, but it is essential to bring either a sleeping bag or sheet lining, and pillow cases. Storage radiators are in use during the winter months. 
NEW BATHROOM FACILITIES!
Upstairs in the newly refurbished bathroom there are two deluxe showers with individual changing cubicles, two washbasins and vanity units and a separate toilet cubicle. The area is fully tiled with good lighting, extractor fans and efficient heating. There is also a downstairs toilet. The separate classroom / laboratory, or "The Hut", has work tables and chairs, a blackboard and wall display area, heaters and electric sockets.
