Great Ideas for Family Summer Holidays in the UK
Cost £375 Total For Father and Son
It is getting increasingly difficult to spend quality time with growing children. It also seems that year on year children become increasingly divorced from the outdoor environment with their world becoming ever more sanitised and risk averse. For instance whatever happened to traditional activities such as climbing a tree? Adventure Britain have therefore come up with a Summer activity break during the school holidays just for father and sons set in the stunning natural adventure playground, Bannau Brycheiniog (Brecon Beacons) National Park.
In 2025 98.4% of our customers rated their activities with us good or excellent in terms of their overall experience and value for money.
