Schools and College groups that visit us each year

We’ve been supporting teachers with school trips for over 12 years. Our caring and supportive approach ensures all involved have an excellent experience from start to finish.

 

Our action packed activity days are a fantastic way to bring together the children, developing essential learning skills and great for positive mental and physical well being.

We have a number of packages that are regular favourites with our schools and colleges that help support your key objectives. Our multi-activity day is ideal for an end-of-year reward or an induction day at the start of the year. These cross reference with many learning outcomes, Team Building being the most popular.

Our residential packages are based in either our Wooden Pod Village, Tented Village or our beautiful historic Manor House. You can choose from one, two or four nights and all include catering, although non-catered options are available. Our instructor-led activities start from the moment you arrive to the moment you leave, including evening activities too. Our group coordinators are here to support you and your group throughout the stay and will help make your visit run smoothly. We can also come to your school to deliver a presentation to parents and children about the residential experience.

Schools offering DofE can take advantage of our camping facilities, which have external sinks and easy access.
