THE KIDS’ ZONE
Our secure buildings within the hotel grounds include separate spaces for different age groups. These areas are suited to a variety of activities including games, arts and crafts, and campfire cooking.
Children’s spaces
Kids’ Zone
Our space for supervised sessions. Child-centred indoor and outdoor activities make the most of our environment. Helping the children to hone their bush craft and orienteering skills, or simply grabbing a beanbag and reading amongst the wooden toys.
The den
A games room for the older children, challenge your friends to a game of chess, create master pieces in the creative area, relax on the bean bags, as you watch a movie. Designed for 8-12 years.
Our staff
Ofsted-registered, the Kids’ Zone is run by experienced, qualified staff. All staff have valid DBS checks in place. The Kids’ Zone is open everyday.
