“We’ve been bringing our students back to Carlingford Adventure Centre and Skypark for several years now and can definitely recommend it. We’ve had day trips and longer overnight visits and have been impressed by the friendliness and professionalism of all the staff and instructors (safety and fun are the main considerations). The multiple activities across Land, Sea and Sky offer good value for money and we can’t wait to visit again this year”

“I enjoyed Murder Mystery, canoeing and Laser Combat the most because it involves being with my friends. The unique games and challenges within the activities itself were just as fun, (such as the cutlery archery and the bunny riddle!) Lunch and dinner were delicious! All the leaders were nice and welcoming, Jake was my favourite leader. The funniest part was the teachers laughing so hard they were crying. All of us has fond memories of Carlingford and will reminisce the three days in the future. Yours sincerely, Anngeni
“Carlingford Adventure Centre is expertly managed, extremely safe and most importantly a fun place to be! Our P7 girls attend every year for a 4 night residential and I have no hesitation in recommending the centre for your school trip. Every aspect of your stay at Carlingford Adventure will be discussed and monitored, just as you would expect from this professional centre.”
“We have just returned from a fabulous trip with 29 of our students to Carlingford. The staff were exceptional and patient with all our pupils including the adults! Andy was amazing with the children and as a member of staff on this trip, it was the best one I have personally been on. The children will hopefully have memories of this trip for a life time to come, I know I will. Thank you again for such a fantastic time. Carlingford staff and instructors, you should be very proud of yourselves for doing such an amazing job.”
“We have been using Carlingford Adventure Centre for a good number of years. No request is too small from them to deal with. The booking process is very efficient and communication extremely good. All instructors are skilled and proficient in their interactions with students and encouragement is always given. I would highly recommended Carlingford Adventure for a day trip or an overnight”
I went away to Carlingford for a night with my school. We had an amazing time and did loads of different activities, but, what made our stay even better was our instructor Alex! He was so enthusiastic, funny and made our games a lot more fun by being creative and energetic. His sense of humour and enthusiasm made everyone wanted to join in.
