Drive to Wookey Hole
School Geography Trip to Cornwall and Eden Project
A school geography trip to Cornwall and the Eden Project will provide the opportunity to immerse students in a truly spectacular outdoor classroom.
Geography will be brought to life while students discover the breath-taking coastal landscapes of the region. They’ll investigate fascinating rock formations and river erosion sites as part of their fieldwork. And they’ll explore biodiversity, ecosystems and sustainability at the Eden Project.
Best of all, Cornwall offers the opportunity to get your students excited about the incredible geography they can enjoy here in the UK. And by staying in the UK and travelling by coach, you'll be reducing the carbon footprint of your trip!

Groups will stay in multi-bedded rooms, and leaders in twins. All rooms have en-suite bathrooms, TVs and full air-conditioning.
The hotel serves a hearty breakfast every day, but the evening meal is taken in one of the Eden Project's lovely restaurants elsewhere on the campus.
Among the hostel's many amenities are board games, a heated marquee for socialising, free WiFi, a shop, grounds to explore, and a bar in which group leaders can relax of an evening.

The YHA Penzance is set in a Gregorian mansion surrounded by beautiful, peaceful gardens. Facilities available here include a games room, café and a barbecue area.
Students are usually accommodated in multi-bedded rooms, with adults in twins and singles.
