Our activities
Our activities fall into two categories - instructor-led and teacher-led.
Instructor-led activities
We offer: Archery, Arrows, Bushcraft, Fencing, Low Ropes, Zip Wire.
These sessions are run by an instructor with an appropriate qualification or suitable experience who will ensure the activity runs smoothly and safely. A member of your staff will also be required to remain with each group to support the activity. No experience is necessary.
Teacher-led activities
We offer: Geocaching, Grass sledging, Pond-dipping, Tunnels, Golf frisbee
Our teacher-led activities do not require an experienced or certified member of our team. We will provide you with the relevant equipment, instructions and safety guidelines before leaving you to oversee the rest of the session.
Any of our teacher-led activities can also be run by a member of our team at an additional charge.
All risk assessments and a copy of our liability insurance certificate can be produced on request.

Wet weather arrangements
A shelter is available at the bottom of Bubbs Hill for groups to make use of. We also have a stable block towards the top of the hill which can also be used by groups. During busy periods or for larger groups, we will erect marquees/gazebos to shelter from the weather. Primarily though, we are an outdoor facility and groups should come prepared for all weathers.
