 Thurston Outdoor Education Centre is set in the heart of the Lake District. Based on the shores on Coniston Water within large private grounds, Thurston is an ideal venue for Outdoor Activities. The picturesque village of Coniston is nearby as is Grizedale Forest. A variety of fells, mountains, lakes and rivers ensure we are never short of adventurous terrain. Within Thurstons Grounds we have orienteering courses, an indoor climbing wall and private lake access.
Types of courses on offer
Courses are usually either Monday - Friday or Friday - Sunday. However we aim to be flexible and may be able to accommodate courses of other lengths. We are happy to design an outdoor activity programme to meet your needs and objectives. Alternatively you may wish to plan your own course content.
We have accommodated courses for the following: School Groups both Primary and Secondary, Youth Clubs, Scouts & Guides, Connexions, Staff Training, Personal & Social Development, Adult Activity Weekends, Duke of Edinburgh and Outdoor Qualifications.
Accommodation & Catering
Thurston underwent a major refurbishment during 2006. The student shower/toilet block is now located within the main building. Staff bedrooms are now en-suite. All meals are prepared by our experienced catering team who provide a nutritious and balanced diet.
