I have organised a trip with Acorn Adventure for 4 years now and I cannot recommend them enough. The trips are always really well organised and the staff are always incredibly helpful. I would not use any other company for a trip to The Ardeche. It is the highlight of my year and something the stude...

Fantastic. Could not recommend the company highly enough. I have used Acorn for the past 5 years to take our students to the Ardeche. Whether we have taken 35 or 90 students, the staff are absolutely fantastic and ensure we have a brilliant time whilst away. Kim is brilliant in the office and makes ...

Fantastic trip to the Ardeche. We went on the family trip to the Ardeche Gorge in August 2018, the trip down by coach was rather log and tedious - take as much stuff as you can on the bus to make yourself comfortable and able to sleep. But the camp itself was fantastic fun and we met lots of great p...

Acorn Family holidays are simply brilliant. We've had the pleasure of going on two now once to Brecon in the Pods and this year to Dordogne. Both were amazing! Beautiful locations, amazing staff and being cooked for is always a treat. We loved both experiences and most especially enjoying time toget...

We booked a school trip to this company our children were meant to go on in May which unfortunately got cancelled due to the current circumstances, but instead of them offering a date to re schedule or a refund they have refused to do either. Which is totally disgusting! They are letting the school ...

I have renamed this company ACORN HORRORDAYS! We visited their flagship Ardeche region and were horrified by the appalling tents, food rations and aging, poorly maintained camp site littered with lorry containers. We left after two days, complained to the organisation and the quality of customer ser...

Don't send your kids on a school holiday with these guys - they refuse to talk to you because you are just a parent, not a 'direct' customer; 'the school is their customer'... they refuse to put anything in writing. Well dodgy if you ask me!

We've been on two family holidays with acorn. Once to wales and then to Spain, we had an awesome time. The kids really enjoyed it, food was good, instructors were fab. Tents are basic but ok and the cabins in Spain were much better than the tents but still quite basic but all in all good value for m...

We booked last year for August- 2 adults and 2 children aged 12 for Ardeche. The call centre did not explain a two-tier pricing policy for tents and mis sold our trip to Ardeche. The activity guides at the campsite were excellent however the Acorn centre manager on location and the sales Director at...

Our Guide Trip to Italy was AMAZING, worth all the fundraising etc and the girls are still buzzing about it now. The Centre Staff were all brilliant, the food was great with lots of seconds available and the programme was full on but perfect. Stunning scenery and awesome natural settings for the act...

We have used Acorn for a number of years now and we have always found them to be most helpful even with lastminutedotcom requests. Kim who we deal with is always pleasant and I treat her more as a friend rather than a person I have business dealings with.

Avoid. Accommodation in brochures looks better that the real thing. Tents look tiered and worn, ripped zips and holes in canvas.
Not clipped down properly either, so wind comes in!!!
I would've had a better night sleep in a crack den and that is no exaggeration.

Don't even get me started on the...

Tents were ok and a beautiful setting. Pupils enjoyed the activities. However, food was very poor (we had to go and buy them a decent breakfast and ordered takeaway pizzas in the evening) and washing facilities could be better. Lack of knowledge about excursions. Website makes it look better than it...
