The world is your playground

Spain

Imagine waking up to the sounds of the rolling waves, enjoying a tasty meal at your exclusive holiday resort, then gearing up for a day of exhilarating watersports. Try out SUP paddleboarding, sail the waves on a banana boat, spend the day exploring gorgeous Barcelona, or a fun water park. All of this and more, on the sunny shores of Costa Brava.

UK

Who said you need to go far from home to have an amazing family holiday? Our UK packages will have you exploring a natural park in Wales, replete with horse riding and treetop trails, or enjoy the views seen from Mount Cook, snug in a cozy glamping tent.

India

Experience the adventure of a lifetime and explore India’s age-old traditions. Visit the Taj Mahal, tackle the rapids of the Ganges River, travel through Old Delhi via rickshaw, and experience authentic culture with visits to temples, spice markets, and local villages. Perfect for those looking to add an extra bit of spice to their family holiday.

France

Visit the “Grand Canyon of Europe” and reconnect with nature with our family adventures in France. This destination is a must-see for all foodies, landscape enthusiasts, and families fond of tackling the great outdoors. Our adventure package in the Ardèche region features a 2-day paddleboarding trip as its highlight, along with a variety of exciting outdoor activities and trips to nearby rustic villages.

Malta

Famous for its golden sands and calm waters, a trip to Malta is a perfect way to upgrade a beach holiday. This hidden gem, tucked away between Sicily and the North African coast, is a haven for watersport lovers. Its year-long warm weather, stunning coastline, and azure waters make it a beloved destination…for those in the know.

Some lovely reviews from our customers

It was awesome! The children have said that it was by far the best holiday we have had as a family. Staff were fun and friendly and encouraged us all to push ourselves. The timetable was well planned and kept us all busy. Lovely having it all planned for us. Brilliant!

REBECCA GEDDES

Just back home from a week at the Ardeche centre. Couldn’t recommend it highly enough. First class food, even freshly prepared on the river bank. Brilliant. Instructors very knowledgeable and brimming with enthusiasm. Steve and Lauren caving – great. Rich( dick) homer kayaking super. And Becky on the decent – brilliant. Thanks again. Kids in bed, me soaking in the bath! Cheers Paul( the daft bald fireman).

P Rowlands

First time been with acorn at their Normandy campsite, it was BRILLIANT!! We both loved it , activities were great , food really tasty , staff fantastic . Met a great bunch of people.

C R Granger

My 5 year old daughter is still, 3 weeks later, talking about the paddleboard instructor (he looked a bit like David Walliams!!) who put her in the water to splash around, whilst I got chance to paddleboard. Awesome day! Thanks to him please, as otherwise I would have had to leave the activity as I did with kayaking. Much appreciated! Thanks to everyone. Faultless holiday. Perfect.

J Safari

If you want happy, exhausted children then try this holiday. There was an excellent mix of activities and evening entertainment that we would not change and left my son wanting more

Mr Parsons

As mentioned previously this is the fourth year my son and I have holidayed with Acorn (two times in Brecon and once here). We absolutely love it and always rave about it to our friends. As a single parent it is good value for money, we always make friends and have a laugh. What more could you ask for from a holiday! See you next year

Anne Marie

Without exception the staff were caring, polite, professional and exceptionally enthusiastic. The staff made the trip enjoyable and always ensured that all people were fully included and engaged – Exceptional service

Nicola McDermott

We can’t speak highly enough of the staff – they were friendly, warm, hardworking, good natured, tolerant, helpful, fun and professional –
each and every one. A fantastic team to be proud of.

Catherine Jennings

Different altogether and a wonderful experience.

Briony Davies

We had great fun! Thank you all very much! My boys learnt a lot more independence while staying here!

Katalin Bedocs

I can honestly say I’ve had the best time ever!.
