Our very own Dai (instructor aficionado and maintenance extraordinaire) has been busy! Slowly but surely, and strictly in-line with Government guidelines, we're preparing to re-open bookings for family staycations and weekend getaways. Stay posted! #staycation #getaway #Wales

[Govilon @goviloncentre]

Due to the ongoing COVID-19 situation, we remain closed until further notice. We will post updates as they become available, but please get in touch if you wish to discuss anything.

In the meantime, the Centre is basking in the glorious Welsh sunshine! ☀️😃

Our last morning at Govilon. All packed just about to have breakfast and then off to Big Pit. We will keep you updated later with an arrival time back at school - hoping for 5pm.

[Bishop Visits @BSSvisits]

And yes we are bringing them all back with us.

It has been a great afternoon hill walking. It was windy and chilly but gorgeous. We got told about rocks and local flora. Now we are tucking into our yummy supper before our night walk!
