THE PINES CALYX
From conferences to training courses, retreats to artistic performances, personal celebrations and much more – The Pines Calyx venue is suited to a wide range of uses.
The Pines Calyx is the first venue in Europe to be designed and built using the principles of cradle-to-cradle design, whereby materials used are sustainable and considerate of life and future generations.
We have a tiered set of hiring rates, to take account of community, VCSE, public sector and corporate expectations and all surpluses from these fees help subsidise the environmental education work of The Bay Trust.
OUR facilities
Situated on the East Kent coastline The Pines Calyx has three meeting, dining and presentation spaces set in a stunning organically managed garden. The optimum “thinking space” for conferences, workshops and leadership training. All profits from your venue hire go directly towards our charitable work.
