:: Outdoor Education Activities Centre Devon :: Outdoor Adventure Breaks

Team Building

As a recognised RYA and BCU teaching establishment courses are available in Dinghy and Keelboat sailing, Powerboating and Canoeing/kayaking. These take place either in the spectacular Torbay with approx. 20 square miles of sheltered water or on the beautiful River Dart. Also available are team building/personal development courses, which can be tailored to meet the needs of your company, using the outdoors as an excellent medium for isolating the processes of effective teamwork and performance. The centre can also provide a relaxed venue for you to host your own conference/meeting especially if you need to brainstorm a project or work related issue or simply improve the bond within your staff team. Finally you may want to celebrate a birthday or special occasion in an alternative but memorable way by Abseiling down a 25metre cliff or Caving on Dartmoor etc. Contact the Centre Manager to discuss your needs. The centre can be booked for week (Mon. to Fri) or weekend (Fri to Sun) residential visits, although the length of stay can vary according to the time of year and other bookings. Groups of up to 72 persons can be accommodated. This would typically comprise of up to 60 children/young people (i.e. 10 activity groups) plus 12 staff. Groups have exclusive use of the centre, unless the groups involved have arranged sharing. Everything you need can be provided including catering and activities leaving you to concentrate on the needs of yourself and your group.

Welcome

Grenville House Outdoor Education Centre provides a spectacular setting for a wide range of experiences and opportunities in either a residential or non-residential, throughout the year.
Set in a unique waterside location alongside the historic fishing port of Brixham, with outstanding views across Torbay the centre provides a feeling of seclusion whilst being a short walk from the town centre.
Our emphasis on the user combined with a flexible approach enables us to offer programmes for groups of schoolchildren, youth groups or organisations and adults, which are designed to meet their needs and budget.
The Charity can also offer financial support to assist groups who may have difficulty funding their visit.
