FUN      EXCITEMENT      FRIENDSHIP      SAFETY

Over the many years that this programme has been running wonderful friendship groups have been built. Many of our guests have been attending for well over ten years and some over twenty years. New faces are always most welcome and find integration very easy indeed.

Please note that the above two weeks are the only weeks that we can offer you in the Summer of 2007. The rest of August has been blocked booked for exclusive use by a children's charity and we are unable to accommodate others at this time. Our sincere apologies if this inconveniences you in any way. We do hope that we may see you during the above dates.
