The Snow Centre

The closest real snow to London.

This is Britain’s newest indoor snowsports destination.

Designed to deliver the alpine conditions every skier and snowboarder dreams of, you’ll find a huge 160m main slope as well as the largest indoor lesson slope in the UK. Both our slopes are over 30m wide and maintained with the perfect snow surface.

Great snow, always.

Using the latest snow canon technology we provide an ‘Alpine’ surface that’s just perfect every run. It is real snow made with water and air – just like the real thing! If you’re serious about having fun on the slopes then this Snow Centre is for you. Our vast slope sits at 160m in length and over 30m wide. Jump on one of the two POMA button lifts and you’re at the top in no time (or jump off at one of the several exits depending on your skill level).

Our 100m lesson-slope, the largest in the UK, is perfect for learning your chosen snowsport and is equipped with two rope tows, giving you an easy introduction to using lift systems.
