Reclaimed barns surround a pretty courtyard garden with a walkers cafe. The grounds include wild woodland ideal for exploring, a sunny meeting/yoga room and a flat campsite, all with superb views.

Meals are served in the onsite cafe or the hostels' beautiful high-roofed dining room which retains the impressive proportions and atmosphere of the old barn. There is also a self-catering kitchen with stunning views, a snug with log burner to relax in and an attic reading room. The Court Hill Centre has proved to be a popular year-round destination.

North Wessex Downs National Landscape
March 10th 2024
The North Wessex Downs is an ancient chalk landscape that straddles Wiltshire, Berkshire, Hampshire and Oxfordshire. An area of wide-open downland and dramatic scarp slopes, topped by the ancient Ridgeway. The northern edge, sweeps to a crest above the White Horse Vale and that is where you will find the Courthill Centre. Just 2 miles south of Wantage, and only a few steps from the historic Ridgeway National Trail and on King Alfred’s cycleway, The Court Hill Centre provides low cost fully catered accommodation for school groups, camping for long-distance walkers and private hostel bedrooms with self-catering for lucky individuals.

Whatever happened to YHA Ridgeway?
January 1st 2018
Although much used by schools, I am glad to say that the hostel is still available to individuals walking the Ridgeway or anyone who fancies a night or two in rural Oxfordshire. There are private rooms, a self-catering kitchen with stunning views and an amazing place to eat and chat under the timbers of the old barn.
