Excellent staff (March 2020 - Secondary School)




(February 2020 - Secondary School)




Started off unorganised and the agreed areas and implements weren't in place and limited areas to change children with disabilities. Instructor was amazing with the children and gave them lots of confidence and social experiences. (February 2020 - Secondary School)




Despite being at Xscape an hour before our lessons, the students still struggled to get ready in time. This can mostly be attributed to the slow, uninterested staff and undermanned rental area, which was very busy the whole time. Students were still waiting in line for skis after 40+ minutes. Several of our instructors arrived late to the lessons, and the ones that were there on time stood around chatting rather than assisting. Xscape is expensive and poorly organised, however sadly it is the only local place to give our students the experience. (February 2020 - Secondary School)

Superb! (January 2020 - Secondary School)




Very mixed when contacting them to book and plan. Lot more expensive than Chill Factore. Lessons finished earlier than should have done. (January 2020 - Secondary School)




Staff taught the students the basics of skiing in a fun and enthusiastic manner (January 2020 - Secondary School)




(January 2020 - Secondary School)




Fantastic facilities (November 2019 - Secondary School)




Fantastic facilities. (November 2019 - Secondary School)




All students must be checked to ensure they have brought gloves with them before leaving school otherwise they can not take part in the activity - 17 did not do so. (July 2019 - Secondary School)

Very good lesson but the guys doing the boot and ski fittings didn't really advise what the children needed to do (June 2019 - Primary School)




(June 2019 - Primary School)




(May 2019 - Primary School)




Great venue for the purpose intended (April 2019 - Secondary School)




Great trip - organised company. (March 2019 - Secondary School)




(March 2019 - Primary School)




Excellent instruction with students showing a clear improvement during the 2-hour lesson. My only criticism is the time it took for Snozone to confirm the booking (2 months), making it a rush to organise everything in school. (March 2019 - Secondary School)




(March 2019 - Secondary School)




(February 2019 - Secondary School)




Slow with sorting boots & skis. Great lesson (February 2019 - Secondary School)




(January 2019 - Secondary School)




A great trip which ran smoothly and the students grasped the basic skills of putting on ski boots, stopping using snow plough. (December 2018 - Secondary School)




Facilities marvellous - we return every year and always fantastic. (December 2018 - Secondary School)




Staff were helpful with the boys and taught them on the snow well. To further improve, they need to provide coaching points and tips for getting the equipment on i.e. the boots! (December 2018 - Primary School)




A good place for a reward and the children loved the experience. The mass catering was disappointing (November 2018 - Primary School)




We use this provider regularly as part of our Enriched Curriculum offer. (November 2018 - Secondary School)




(July 2018 - Primary School)




Very helpful staff - not too restrictive briefed the students then let them have fun Good sessin and the time ( 45 mins ) was about right. (June 2018 - Secondary School)




Very accommodating with excellent ski tuition. Our pupils had a great time. (March 2018 - Secondary School)




Expensive for what it is! (February 2018 - Secondary School)




Fantastic staff! Very helpful (February 2018 - Secondary School)




Lift passes were not pre-printed (though other group's passes were) which then took a long time to print Very few staff available Several instructors would not help students into boots/equipment Large price hike since last year's trips, may not use again Venue was suitably quiet, which was good for the ski lessons and free time afterwards (January 2018 - Secondary School)




Super to deal with and very understanding to any changes that were made (December 2017 - Secondary School)




(December 2017 - Secondary School)




Great venue - children thoroughly enjoyed themselves and the staff were perfect. (December 2017 - Primary School)
