Hello, thanks for your question. I'm sorry that it wasn't answered sooner.
This solely depends on what role you are thinking about in the Army and this will determine what your training will be like.
I can only speak from my own experience but going through basic training for other roles except infantry you will do 14 weeks at Pirbright/Winchester or slightly longer at Harrogate depending on your age. If you are joining the Infantry then your training will be at Catterick.
I joined Adjutant General's Corps within the Staff and Personnel Support (AGC(SPS)) Branch and I was 18 so I went to Pirbright for 14 weeks. This involved learning basic soldiering skills such as drill, weapon handling, physical and mental fitness/robustness, living in the field and military annual training test preparation. At some times training was tough and tiring and other times it was enjoyable but still challenging.
No matter where you train whether it be Catterick for Infantry or others for other roles, my advice remains the same. Stay positive, work hard four yourself and more importantly others and remember training doesn't last forever.
Good luck with your application.
