What does your residential centre offer school trips
Bentley Copse residential activity centre is located in the heart of the Surrey Hills providing a quiet rural environment for students to have a fun learning enrichment experience away from traffic noise and flight paths. We do not host multiple school residentials at the same time giving you a relaxing woodland experience with activities based in the trees of our ancient protected woodland.
What makes you a great group accommodation choice for a school trip or educational visit
Our trips are full bespoke and often combine a packed activity schedule with a relaxed flexibility of some downtime. These options can give students the opportunities to revisit favorite activities or locations and for secondary school students or simply time to relax and socialise under the shades of our ancient oaks.
