"Thank you and all the team for another fantastic time at your wonderful hostel. We're all really energised from our adventures and all of us felt really warmly welcomed as before. We especially appreciated coming to our assistance when stuck at Seatoller on our last day - fortunately it all worked out in the end. We hope to be back at some point."

Themes
If you are interested in one or more of these themes then please get in touch by emailing reception@derwentwater.org or ringing 017687 77246.
Each theme incorporates many different skills and subject areas. The activities are aimed at Key Stage 2 of the National Curriculum in England, but they can be adapted for other key stages and educational programmes. We can also tailor the activities to meet your learning objectives, differentiation needs, and time constraints.
The recommended places to visit are almost all within walking distance or a 30 minute drive of the hostel.
