Acorn is one of the original providers of adventure residentials for schools, groups and families, with over 35 years' experience. We have nine Adventure centres in the UK and Europe and all of our activity centres in France, Italy, Spain, Malta and UK have been carefully selected to deliver a high quality outdoor education experience.
Our aim is to provide you with educational, character building outdoor experiences at affordable prices. We believe passionately that every child should experience a journey of adventure throughout their school life.
Our range of school activity trips have been created to help young people develop a good sense of adventure & discovery and grow from a little acorn into a majestic oak. That's why it all began in 1982...and why we are still here today.
Our well established, private Acorn centre next to Hauteville sur Mer Beach (Normandy) opened in 1984 and continues to be a really popular adventure school trip destination.
We've been operating in the Ardèche for three decades and our experience, professionalism and passion for this incredible location shines through in the trips we deliver here. As voted by our customers.
Hop over the channel to our lakeside Adventure Camp in the rural town of Ardres, for an action-packed French adventure just 2 hours from the UK by ferry and coach.
With over 35 years of organising trips for schools, groups and families, we've built up an excellent reputation.
