Summer Activity Camps 2010
18 - 24 July * 25 July - 31 July
1 - 7 August * 8 -14 August * 15 - 21 August
Jo Farrington has been organising activity holidays
for the past twenty years. Moorland Hall is a beautiful Victorian
Country House to run courses from.
The house, which also has a swimming pool, stands
in its own five acres of gardens and paddocks in some of the most
beatiful scenery within Dartmoor National Park in West Devon.
Children live with the Farrington family and with
numbers of between 20 - 40 children staying at any one time, they
soon feel very at home in the relaxed and happy atmosphere of this
beautiful family home.
A holiday at Moorland hall is a holiday with a purpose.
Everyone has fun and makes new friends, but above all they come
away with a sense of achievement and with skills that they will
value for the rest of their lives.
The activities
that we organise include many of the things that young people dream
about doing, even if they are designed to develop qualities of leadership,
stamina, teamwork and confidence! Our aim is for everyone to have
fun while achieving the challenges set for them.
Safety is our priority, and our equipment is modern
and well maintained. Fully qualified instructors always supervise
all the activities, which include:
There are also many indoor activities:
 Our
guests live as part of the family and sleep in the attached coach
house, in rooms
of between 6 and 12 children. We have male and female staff, who
together with Jo Farrington provide close supervision at night,
so that there is always someone close at hand if the need arises.
In the main house there is a large sunny sitting room, a conservatory,
television and dining room.
One of the features of Moorland Hall is that it is
a family home and because of the relaxed atmosphere, children do
quickly feel at home here.
Most of our guests are aged between 9 and 15. Many
of our guests come alone, but very soon mix with all the other children.
Those who have not been away from home before may like to bring
a friend. Because we are a small organisation, we can keep a careful
eye on how everyone is getting on, to make sure they are happy and
enjoying their holiday.
We have a large number of children from overseas coming to stay
with us too, including Austrians, Spanish, French and Portuguese.
They are here to learn English, and enjoy mixing with our English
guests, often forming strong friendships that last for many years.
We believe that our popularity is partly due to our
unrivalled facilities, but most of all to the warm and cheerful
atmosphere that pervades the house.
