When to visit

We start our residential visits at the end of January each year and continue throughout the year until early December. Because we employ permanent staff, we are able to undertake a comprehensive maintenance programme during late December and early January, to ensure the highest standards of safety for all our accommodation and equipment. We also use this time to refresh staff training, update our risk assessments and Health and Safety policy and plan activities for the coming year.

Spring Term
March to mid-May is a fabulous time for a residential educational visit.
