The Countryside Centre
Set within the 170 acre Hinchingbrooke Country Park, just outside Huntingdon, the Countryside Centre is an unusual and relaxing location for your conference, training or meeting and perfect for clubs, natural history based or otherwise!
Meetings, Training and Conferences
The rooms are hired by the hour (minimum hire of 2 hours) and can be laid out to suit your needs. Discounts may be available for charitable, environmental organisations and voluntary groups.
There are 2 rooms available:
- Kestrel Room which seats max. 60 people
- Wren Room which seats max. 40 people
- The Kestrel & Wren Rooms can be made into one large room by pushing back sliding shutters and then seats max. 100 people.

Catering
We can serve tea, coffee, squash & biscuits for you, alternatively you can bring your own and use our urn and mugs for £5 saving you some money and giving you the flexibility of clearing up yourselves.
Our on site cafe can provide a variety of refreshments for you, from a full buffet to a cake platter, fruit platter or even a barbecue. Please discuss your requirements when booking. If you choose to bring a buffet in from elsewhere we are happy to clear up afterwards but will make a small charge.
Please see the links to the right for our leaflet and a booking form which includes a current price list and room layout options.
