Allenheads Lodge has a long history in outdoor education and has been owned and operated by Springboard since the 1970s. The lodge offers groups an opportunity to be involved in many outdoor and experiential learning activities across the North Pennines. Our staff are fun and energetic and can motivate even the most challenging groups. We are currently a key delivery partner for the Princes Trust Team programme and run regular weeklong residentials for them. We also run day activities to schools, youth organisations and colleges.
