I can honestly say that in all the years I have been involved in school trips, Mount Batten watersports and activities centre was the best fun and welcoming place I have ever brought school children to. The accommodation was very good, the food managed to be both appetizing and plentiful, whilst the number and variety of activities on offer ensured that every child will have brought home their own cherished memory. The instructors in particular were very enthusiastic and impressive in their efforts to ensure all the children, whatever their abilities were able to excel”.
