Blackwell Adventure School Trips

★★★★★ ,
"Blackwell is brilliant. The staff are all professional, fun, caring and great with the children. They provide a programme that is packed with an excellent range of fun, exciting activities which the children really enjoy. Also great food and accommodation. Looking forward to returning in October"

"Our experience at Blackwell Court was a great opportunity to learn more about outdoor adventurous activities as student teachers whilst also having a great time! As a group, we enjoyed all of the activities we were able to participate in and would love to visit again! Particular highlights were learning how to run team building activities with very minimal equipment and having the opportunity to try all of the activities ourselves so that we felt what pupils would be experiencing if they had not done a certain activity before. We also did a wide range of tasks in such a short space of time which taught us different skills and showed us how we could implement these challenges within outdoor adventurous activities at school. We would highly recommend Blackwell Court to other groups and all would love to work with the staff to bring school groups along so they are able to have the great experience we did! Thank You! "

"We have been using Blackwell for a number of years to put GCSE PE students through climbing for one of their practical activities. Instructors have always been brilliant and students always graded fairly. Always been a worthwhile trip. The staff have always been super flexible and really helpful understanding how difficult organising even a simple day visit can be. Would highly recommend a visit. "

★★★★★ Simon Green, St. Paul's School for Girls
"We use the camping facilities at Blackwell each year with our Bronze DofE groups. The campsites are always clean and tidy, as are the toilet facilities. The booking process is easy and the prices are very competitive but the main reason we return is the Blackwell Staff - nothing is too much trouble; friendly, knowledgeable and always available."

★★★★★ Rachel Datson, Meadows / Parkside Mainstream Autism Base
"Blackwell are so accommodating. They can not do enough for the group before and during the trip. All the instructors were so supportive of the indivdiual's needs. We are returning again this year!"

★★★★★ Steve Boycott, CVQO Schools Partnership Programme
"The CVQO Schools Partnership Programme (SPP) has been using Blackwell Adventure for the last 4 years. We take several groups each term from the Worcestershire, Warwickshire and Birmingham areas and can not praise the staff enough. Completely professional, friendly, accommodating and fun. From the precise organisation and easy booking process through to the tailored day packages and dedicated instructors, we will continue to use Blackwell Adventure as our go to venue for outdoor activities. Great facilities, friendly staff, lots of fun. "

★★★★★ Matt Trevor , Woodthorpe JI School
"We have been taking our Year 3/4 children to Blackwell for a number of years now. The customer service received by the school has always been of the highest order, right from the inception of the booking process to the waves of farewell at the end of yet another successful residential. In terms of location, you couldn't ask for more, especially when travelling over from the nearby Birmingham area. The activities are incredibly well maintained and staffed, with safety always at the centre of everything that is done. Our accommodation has always been booked within the Manor House, which is ideal for the age of child we bring. ALL staff associated with the centre are knowledgeable, helpful and friendly. I couldn't recommend Blackwell more when considering organising a school, or any form of, residential / excursion. We look forward to June.........."

★★★★★ Pippa Probert, Amesbury
"Blackwell is fantastic! We have used them for over 5 years now and book for the next year as soon as we get back. They bend over backwards to help and make your experience brilliant. The instructors and all the staff are wonderful. "

★★★★★ Mark Cross, Chilcote Primary
"We’ve been coming to Blackwell Court for 20 years and it just gets better each year! The activities are brilliant and the staff are amazing with our children. Nothing is too much trouble. We’ll be biking again for next year!"
