Notes to editors:

Family Adventure Holidays offers adventure and activity holidays at great-value prices in locations in the French Med and in Normandy and the Ardèche. There are no hidden extras, and some are offered on a fully inclusive basis. All breaks include a flexible programme of activities designed for specific age groups combined with activities for the whole family. The holidays exclude international travel. 

The company was founded in 2012 by Nigel English under the umbrella of Voyager School Travel (Class Tours Ltd), a leading operator in the school travel sector. 

As parents of children across the age range, Nigel and his wife Lisa, who has since joined the business, have a true understanding of what makes a fantastic holiday for all the family. This is complemented by years of experience providing educational, activity and adventure holidays to schools, led by staff who are recruited for their engaging, encouraging and fun demeanour, to fit with the company ethos and high standards of safety. The intimate size of the venues ensures that the staff get to know all the families.

The incredibly low price of the holidays reflects the no-frills accommodation, with limited double beds available in certain centres. But no compromises are made on cleanliness, the excellent quality of food, prepared by French chefs, and the unrivalled activity packages led by talented animateurs and qualified sports coaches.   

The holidays, based at four centres, include:

• Château de la Baudonnière in Normandy: a fully inclusive activity week, with accommodation for up to 25 families in a historic building on a 100-acre rural estate, just north of Avranches;
• La Grand' Ferme in Normandy: a fully inclusive family adventure, set in a country estate with outdoor heated pool in the village of La Fougeray, featuring lodgings in a traditional farmhouse and two gîtes, which can host a maximum of 12 families;

• Mediterranean Beach Club in Argelès-sur-Mer: a watersports tuition holiday, offered on a self-catering basis in three-bedroom mobile homes at the four-star Camping Taxo Les Pins campsite, with total capacity for up to nine families;
• The Ardèche: a programme of white-water adventure holidays, including a two-day overnight bivouac descent of the Ardèche Gorge, offered on a self-catering basis in mobile homes at a three-star campsite, with total capacity for up to nine families.
