Nestled within 100 acres of woodland on the shores of Lake Windermere

Lakeside YMCA, located in the picturesque Lake District of England, is a renowned outdoor activity and educational centre. It offers a wide range of programmes and facilities aimed at promoting personal development, teamwork, and outdoor adventure for schools and youth groups.

Nestled within 100 acres of ancient woodland on the shores of Lake Windermere, Lakeside is an idyllic place. Here you can experience a fantastic choice of activities including seven water sports on Lake Windemere, on-site rock climbing on 3 crags, access to fells straight from the door and so much more!

Having had a £7 million renovation, you can expect modern dormitory accommodation and home cooked meals. Open all year round, this 250-bed centre is ideal for your next school residential.

Most groups travel to Lakeside YMCA, using their own trusted coach provider. Our prices therefore exclude transport but a quote can be provided on request.
