Week 3 of the Summer was what is now becoming our annual residential week as every year we have been able to secure Daleby House in Beadnell through Adventure Holidays.
This year saw us take 4 groups up between the monday and friday. While there the groups had the opportunity to kayak, sand sled, go rock pooling, experience going for midnight beach walks as well as visit the local town of Seahouses. The groups get alot out of it and its also a great time for them to spend with their mates. Or in the case of the young mams group, a chance to spend some time away with their kids.
Below is some comments by some of those who went:Daleby
7 young women from Kuwai potatoes enjoyed a fab time at Daleby. They found it relaxing, enjoyed the amazing views and spending time with their friends. They found the house homely and comfy.
The mums and children had a great time and spent time on the beach and rock pooling.
