Barnstondale had pleasant staff and we were well looked after. The instructors worked well with the children and were encouraging. The site has definitely improved since our last visit, and is secure. The organisation of parental drop off and pick ups was assisted by their staff and worked smoothly. The main reason it's 4/5 not 5/5 is that teh timetable we had been sent (with less than 36 hours to go) was changed while we were there , which then affected the places we'd been given on the site to use at designated times, which meant we then were left organising our time and location with the other schools present.

The centre staff are always welcoming and helpful. The facilities are perfect for the intentions of our visit.
As Barnstondale own the grounds behind the centre, it would be great if they could extend their boundary fence to include the woods, field etc as we always use these but there is always the potential for members of the public / dogs to using the area too. As we plan to take younger children in the future, it would be peace of mind to know these areas are more secure.

Centre is an excellent facility, staff are fantastic with our students and staff, nothing is too much trouble for them, I would fully recommend Barnstondale to any school looking for a safe secure nurturing environment to hold a residential visit to. our students loved every minute of their time there and haven't stopped talking about it since.

Clean facilities, good outdoor access to local woods. The kitchen staff were very friendly and the food was tasty. Sleeping accommodation was very comfortable for the children. However, there could be improvements made to update the staff room.
