The Chellington Centre

Carlton Bedford, Bedfordshire

30

This unique accomodation is located near Carlton in Bedfordshire. Remote enough to be blissfully peaceful, yet just 10 miles from Bedford and 15 miles from Northampton and Milton Keynes.

With full residential accommodation for groups up to 30 the modernised St Nicholas Church has  facilities for indoor and outdoor activities. Chellington is a wonderful base to combine team or family activities at the Centre, and action packed day trips to the many local attractions. The Centre can accommodate up to 100 people for day conferences, celebrations and events.

The flexible accommodation includes small group dormitory style bedrooms for up to 30 people - dormitories sleeps 4 or 5 people.

Sleeping accommodation can (by arrangement) be extended to 50 persons by using tents and additional space in the Centre.

A central multi-use hall can be used for indoor activities and dining. A games room and spectacular glass viewing lounge allow for smaller group activities.

The garden is an inspiring space with wonderful views of the Ouse Valley, space for camping for 30, a large garden barbecue and a camp fire circle.

For rainy days we have a wide range of toys and games in our games cupboard.

The Chellington Centre is also hired out on a day hire basis.

A full range of audio visual/cinema kit is available. Free Wi-Fi.

There is a wide range of activities in the local area including the award winning Harrold-Odell Country Park - a short walk over the river - and other river-based activities, such as kayaking. Ask the manager for more info. Just a bit further afield are attractions such as Woburn Safari Park, Wild Britain, Bodyflight (and surf) Xtreme and Bletchley Park.

Chellington recently invested in an air source heat pump which now produces the energy needed for heating the building. There is under floor heating throughout the building, and we have installed off-peak water saving devices. Recycling available on site, and we use plant based cleaning products.
