Originally used as a cattle shed, the Grade II listed building has developed over time and become a key part of Calvert Devon. It is a self-contained building, separate from our residential centre, found immediately to the left as you enter the site.
We are very pleased to offer the revitalised and refurbished Discovery Centre as a welcoming space for all year-round activities, from classes to parties to functions and meetings.
