Reviews from schools who have visited

"The whole experience has been very enjoyable. The accommodation was clean and comfortable. The activities were fun, well led and engaging as well as being informative" - Field Junior School, 15–17 May 2017

We’ve been visiting Hudnall Park for many years because we believe it provides a great opportunity for outdoor learning and making curriculum ‘real’. The skills taught also work well with science and maths topics.” - St Joseph’s Catholic Primary School, October 2017

The activities are educational and the building is super. We really enjoyed ourselves and will be booking up for next year.St Michael's C of E Combined School, September 2017
