The Location :
Knock Christian Centre is set in beautiful countryside with amazing views all around between the Lake District and the Yorkshire Dales. Small dormitories/shared bedrooms; sports hall; games room with pool, table tennis; football field. Own bedding required.
We are based in an area of outstanding natural beauty about 10 miles east of Penrith. It is easy to access, being 13 miles from the M6 (Junction 40) or via the A1(M) and A66. It can also be reached by train to Appleby on the Settle–Carlisle Railway – we will arrange lifts from there.
We aim to help everyone feel welcome and have the best possible holiday.
