Dobroyd Castle
For some time we have had to turn many schools who wanted to book with us away, because (even having extended our season to run from early January to mid December) we were already booked up with schools who return to us year after year.
We are therefore delighted to announce that after opening Dobroyd Castle in March 2009, further expansion is due to take place from May 2012 which will enable us to take up to 285 children.
Dobroyd Castle is a 19th century mansion overlooking Todmorden. The castle has both architectural and historical significance in the area. It was built in the 1860s by local mill owner John Fielden It stands in 17 acres of grounds allowing most of our activities to take place within the grounds of the centre. We offer all of our most popular activities at Dobroyd Castle.
We have indoor facilities for Archery, Climbing, Caving, Piranha Pool, Dungeon of Doom, Quest, Trapeze and Team Challenge.
Activities within the grounds include Zip Wire, Giant Swing, Obstacle Course, Night Line and Problem Solving. A purpose built lake within the grounds is the perfect location for canoeing and raft building in shallow, sheltered water.
