The

Asheldham Centre

Main Website: www.hunterasheldham.yolasite.com

An 11th Century former church now a Grade II Listed Building - our residential centre accommodating 26

Widely regarded as one of the most unique residential centres in the UK, The Asheldham Centre - formerly Asheldham Youth Church  - is home to almost 2000 people of all ages in an average year. HUNTER Outdoor Training run their survival courses, basic campcraft and backpacking skills, navigation, and some leadership courses from this facility.

You can hire the Centre with or without HUNTER in attendance - you can self cater, and be your own boss for the duration of your stay or contract us in as full or part- time Instructors on your course.

The Centre is undoubtedly a gem; many, many, of our clients return to Asheldham due to its special qualities; there are few places in Essex or Eastern England with its atmosphere, and no shops, no pubs, very few houses, and little noise; groups come back to savour the indefinable 'Asheldham Experience'

The exterior of the building gives no clues to its interior; we have completely redesigned and rebuilt all of the inside, and added to the north side to accommodate kitchen, washroom, showers, toilets, and 'games' room.

The accommodation includes two 10 bed dormitories - with new bunk beds, and two smaller two-bed dormitories in a different part of the building; the latter are usually for leaders.
