Good facilities, great staff. (April 2024)




(March 2024 - Primary School)




Adapted and encouraging teaching to our students (March 2024 - Primary School & Secondary School)

(February 2024 - Primary School)




Exellent day out with keen and enthusiastic leadership from Eton Vale. The kids were engaged for the whole day (January 2024 - Secondary School)




Lots of activities on offer. Access for wheelchair users due to natural environment challenging. Portable hoist to be taken by group if required as not provided. (October 2023 - Secondary School)




Great venue for a variety of team building adventurous activities such as canoeing and raft building. Was much better this year not allowing chn to jump in the river at the end. Still there were some children who were keen to 'fall in' and did so. The cave bus and pedal karts were good 'filler' activities. (October 2023 - Primary School)

This residential was beautifully organised by the visit leaders from start to finish (thank you Rosie) and we have already booked our next residential for year 6.

Y3 had a great time. The centre were very accommodating when we revised our timing to make the lunchtime a bit shorter. I think any younger years would probably be better just doing a morning's activities rather than a full day as it was full on and very tiring. (July 2021 - Primary School)




Well organised activities. Children were well supported and encouraged. (July 2021 - Primary School)

This was an absolutely fantastic residential. The centre is immaculately clean and beautifully maintained. The staff cannot do enough to ensure that the children have a wonderful time. The meals are wholesome and well prepared with children in mind. This is our third year and we will definitely be returning next year. The children experienced adventurous activities which challenged and extended their aspirations. In addition to this, they developed their personal skills, learnt to work as part of a team and developed leadership skills. All children experienced a successful residential visit in a challenging but rewarding environment, beyond their classroom. (March 2019 - Primary School)




staff very supportive of our children with special needs, made it fun and enjoyable, made it so all children of various abilities were able to participate in the session. Safety brief was made easy for the children to understand (February 2019 - Secondary School)




Ideal for our short stay. There was a small issue in that we were not told to take sleeping bags and pillows with us but the Eaton Vale staff quickly sorted a solution once they became aware of the problem. (November 2018 - Primary School)
