Has anyone's kid/s been on a PGL holiday

S wants to go, the Shropshire one is just up the road from here... PGL stands for Parents Get Lost... but I have no experience of them. Anyone know 'owt about them?

I did it 30 years ago at Shropshire.

Loved it.

Mind you , it might have changed a bit since then

I went on one about 6-7 years ago, so may have changed but at the time was enjoyable and laid back, the instructors knew what they were talking about and always did there best to look after us hyperactive little kids

I went when I was younger, and was the one of the best experiences as a kid I had. I went to one on Llangorse lake in the Brecons. I had already had very basic sailing lessons, but went three years in a row.

These three years led to me completing the RYA levels 3-4 and 5. Following this, I then was invited by the trainers to attend an "interview" at the start of the summer season. As part of this I spent two weeks completing my final qualifications to become a qualified dinghy sailing instructor. Then, I spent the full summer holidays between School and University teaching and living at the centre.

I can't honestly rate them enough. They help teach independance, great fun, make great freinds and can lead to learning good skills. She would love it.

YOGI on here works for them at a fairly senior level if memory serves me right.

He if got his workers to lay on tea and biscuits at one of the venue in Lincolnshire for the willingham woods ride lol.

Went on one about 5 years ago in Wales and was a great fun as i was with everyone from school, and your day is always filled with interesting and exciting things. Run by good enthusiastic people aswell.
Also will come back nakered!

This alone is a reason to sign her up

Thanks peeps, an overwhelming endorsement, they have a special offer on too so if you bring a friend they go for £99, makes it affordable

Yeah i did in France x2 with my school, I'm sure it was only a few years ago, well ok 15 . But there were great fun and very well organised. She should love it.

Never heard of them
