More about this Workshop/Service and the Provider

Set up in 1971 by three schools – Charters (Ascot), Emmbrook (Wokingham) and Maiden Erlegh (Reading) – Tyr Abad Outdoor Education Centre is a self-contained residential centre able to accommodate groups up to 48 people.

We have a 36-bed residential centre, plus a 16-bed self-catering bunkhouse affectionately known as "Ernie's Cottage".

Tyr Abad Outdoor Educational Centre is located in the village of Tirabad near Llangammarch Wells in the stunning mid-Wales countryside, just north of the Eppynt Moor and Sennybridge on the A40. The centre backs on to the Crychan forest and this, plus the nearby Brecon Beacons National Park, offers superb opportunities for exploration and exciting adventures in caves, on rivers and up mountains.

The centre grounds are well-equipped for orienteering, problem solving, archery and bushcraft, while the local area is also ideal for field studies in Geography and Life Sciences.

We hold an Adventure Activity Licensing Authority (AALA) Licence for:

  • Kayaking
  • Canoeing
  • Paddle Surfing
  • Climbing
  • Abseiling
  • Coasteering
  • Gorge Scrambling
  • Caving
