Marchants Hill

Situated near Hindhead, Surrey and within easy reach of London and the M25, Marchants Hill boasts 45 acres of spacious and tranquil grounds. Recent additions include en suite two-storey lodge accommodation, sports barn and common room.


Set on the edge of the National Trust area known as the Devil's Punchbowl, Marchants Hill is a great location - close to London but in a peaceful setting.

All activities take place within the centre's 45 acres of wooded grounds. The range of activities is wide - with the centre's facilities including three abseiling towers, three zip wire lines, two challenge courses and much more!

Accommodation is in either chalet style lodges (much of which was built in 2006) or at Bethany House, a converted convent.
