Adventure for all ages at Tregoyd House
We’ve learned that children get the most from their PGL adventure when they’re with kids their own age, which is why at Tregoyd House we split our kids’ camps into three main age groups. Not only do children feel more confident and relaxed around same-age peers, it means their adventure will be perfectly tailored to suit their ability, offering age-appropriate excitement, challenges and activities to provide maximum enjoyment from their stay at Tregoyd House.
Our overlapping age ranges give you the option to choose the best group for your child if they are sitting at the upper/lower age limit.
Activities
Tregoyd House is bursting with incredible activities and fun challenges for your young explorers to discover.
Abseiling
The tower is over 10 metres high. The task – to walk backwards off the top, gradually working back towards ground level, suspended only on a rope. It’s all about trust, courage and confidence. It’s also a very dynamic way to learn calculating and controlling risk. Some children deal with heights more easily than others, but the support and encouragement of the rest of the group is important for each individual’s success and will help strengthen peer relationships.
Aeroball / Airball
A cross between trampolining, basketball and volleyball - it’s an exhilarating, high-energy sport. Four players learn the basics required - then spring into action! The aim is to get the ball in the opposing player's net. As well as being lots of fun, your child will develop team tactics and improve communication skills along the way.
Archery
Our Archery sessions offer the chance for every child to experience success. Accuracy, control and a steady hand are vital for achieving the best results and many children discover a talent for a new skill. Handling bows and arrows may be a brand new experience for your child and presents a variety of new challenges! We encourage safety awareness from the outset and teach the basic skills on an indoor or outdoor range.
Archery Tag
Let the battle commence! Archery with a twist - you are aiming for each other! In this game of skill and teamwork you are equipped with foam tipped arrows to battle it out in action packed games. You will do some basic skills training before entering the arena to see who comes out victorious! Available March to September
Canoeing
Canoeing is exciting, challenging and tonnes of fun! It’s also a great opportunity for your child to learn new skills such as paddling and steering in order to control their craft effectively.
Challenge Course
The PGL Challenge Course is legendary – it’s a well-loved and popular activity that can even get quite competitive sometimes! As your child negotiates the various obstacles that lie ahead, it’s an experience that will promote teamwork, lateral thinking, problem solving and decision-making – as well as being physically challenging too.
Climbing
Your child will need to combine different skills including perseverance, strength, an ability to deal with heights – as well as trust in their belay partner and equipment. Those who have never tried it before will find it an exhilarating experience. Climbing at PGL may take place on indoor walls or outdoor climbing towers; whichever it is, we always use a top-rope belay for safety. Weight limit: 140kg
Fencing
Fencing is a great workout for both body and brain. It’s challenging, exciting and involves good eye-to-hand coordination, fast footwork, lightning reflexes and even quicker decision-making. It’s a sport that offers huge potential for the enthusiast to learn more and progress at club level, but it’s also accessible and great fun for beginners too. Our qualified instructors will teach your child the basic principles and safety procedures before they progress onto outwitting their opponent in this great Olympic sport.
Forest Walk
Our instructors lead a walk into the forest around the centre to discover the natural environment through activities, set tasks and games that will help your child get the most from their experience.
Gel Master
Gel Master is a thrilling and adrenaline-fueled experience that will test your teamwork, and ability to think on your feet. Are you ready to take on the challenge? Start the session by learning how the equipment operates using the interactive targets to refine your aim, then gather your team to devise a winning strategy before heading for the game zone where communication is key as you coordinate your movements, and make split-second decisions to outmanoeuvre your opponents.
Hike
Your child can discover the natural beauty of the local surroundings around their PGL centre on a hike led by our instructors. We’ll organise activities and set tasks to help your child get the most from the experience.
Jacob’s Ladder
It’s an exercise in teamwork and friendly cooperation. Your child's objective, in teams of three, is to climb to the top of a suspended ladder of logs. The gaps between each log become wider, the higher you go. Pushing up, pulling up, standing on shoulders – it’s all about working together to achieve a joint purpose. The activity promotes friendship, communication, discussion, leadership and decision-making as each team progresses to the top. Weight limit: 150kg
Orienteering
Orienteering makes an excellent introduction to practical map-reading and is an exciting way to get to know your surroundings on centre. Your child will work in a small teams or as a pair to locate control points across the grounds of the centre. As it’s essentially a competitive activity, the idea is for your child to find all the controls more quickly than the others. The activity helps them to improve decision-making, map reading and correctly judging distances.
Problem Solving
Problem solving sessions test initiative and ingenuity. Children work in small teams to solve puzzles and complete set tasks - it’s a great way for your child to get to know their new friends really well. By the time they finish they’ll have an appreciation and understanding each individual’s ability (including their own!) when it comes to planning, communicating and making decisions – skills which are all key to achieving the objectives of each task.
Raft Building
Down to the water’s edge and your challenge is to design and build a robust and working raft. There’ll be a number of components available, including large plastic barrels, ropes and poles. Our instructors can give as much or as little support as they'd like but it’s a great teamwork exercise and will help your child improve their communication, problem-solving and decision-making. Once rafts are ready to launch, the fun begins on the water!
Rifle Shooting
Shooting our lightweight air rifles tests individual skill and requires high levels of concentration and physical control. Children need to control their breathing, keep a steady hand, concentrate hard and focus on accuracy. Do all this, and there’s a good chance of being rewarded with the success of a good score!
Sensory Trail
The sensory trail is a challenge in more ways than one. During the activity your child will negotiate a series of obstacles – blindfolded – with the other members of their group for guidance. It’s a challenge, which raises questions about our abilities and assumptions, and demands mutual trust, self belief, and effective communication to complete the course successfully.
Survivor
Once the ‘wilderness’ scenario is set, your child will need to develop effective teamwork to build their shelter. Basic navigational skills and meteorological skills help them decide the layout of the site. They will have to identify and share out the key responsibilities for getting each task completed, and communicate well to get the most from the project. Work as a team to build a wilderness shelter on centre, and learn how to stay warm and dry using whatever you can find. They'll need to plan their camp taking into account the prevailing weather and then share out the tasks to get the shelter built before time runs out...
Trapeze
Each stage of the trapeze counts as a success and requires courage and determination. The challenge starts with a climb to the top of a 6 metre pole. Next, a climb onto the small platform will require balance as your child stands to make that leap for the trapeze! It’s an exhilarating and heart-pounding activity that will give your child a very real sense of personal achievement. Weight limit: 150kg
Zip Wire
Once at the top of the zip wire platform, your child is securely attached to the overhead wire before making their flight across the sky! Their route may take them through a forest or even over a lake. It’s a hugely exhilarating experience that requires personal courage and determination – it pushes most children beyond their natural comfort zone. It’s also a chance for the rest of the group to offer support and encouragement. Weight limit: 90-120kg (varies by location)
Archery Tag
Let the battle commence! Archery with a twist - you are aiming for each other! In this game of skill and teamwork you are equipped with foam-tipped arrows to battle it out in action packed games. You will do some basic skills training before entering the arena to see who comes out victorious! Available March to September
Balloon Splash
Each team completes a series of challenges or games to earn coins that will allow them to purchase items from a mystery box! Teams will then work closely together to create the best contraption to protect their water balloon from destruction.
Campfire
The ultimate way to enjoy the great outdoors as a group! Get hands-on constructing your campfire during the day, and it will be lit ready for you to enjoy in the evening. Sing, chat, play games or simply relax around the campfire, our team can cater for all ages in the idyllic settings of our campfires.
Campfire Marshmallows
Everyone's favourite campfire activity…. Marshmallow toasting! Gather around and toast your Marshmallows to perfection whilst enjoying songs, relaxation and games around the campfire
Cluedo
Team PGL need help to solve a great mystery onsite! Children are split into teams and given a map with locations of characters on, and a score card to find out who committed the crime! In their team they'll work to locate the character somewhere onsite and have a task to complete to receive information about the suspect. This game can take place in the evening, so torches are advised.
Creation Station
After a busy day in the great outdoors, our Creation Station session offers the perfect chance to relax and socialise with friends, while creating a keepsake to take home.

Movie Night
Lights, camera, action! Our on-centre cinema experience offers children the opportunity to chill out with friends after a long day of action-packed adventures, and enjoy a film! Perfectly coupled with a trip to the on-site shop to grab a movie snack!
Passport to the World
Hop aboard PGL airlines to take a trip around the world! Here, children are split into teams and given a map with a mixture of country flags located around the site. Each country has a plaque located on the point on the map. The plaques have questions to answer related to that country, which must all be answered correctly before returning to base. It might be dark when this activity takes place, so torches are advised.
PGL Tournament
At PGL Tournament guests will play a series of exciting team games and complete a selection of individual challenges to determine which team is the best! Challenges include: Basketball Shoot, Human Skittle and Ultimate Frisbee
Quiz
In teams, guests are set Q&A-style challenges with lots of interaction and plenty of variety to keep them motivated and to maximise their participation. As well as general knowledge, rounds may include dressing up, dancing and miming.
Silent Disco
Party the night away without the noise of a disco. Every guest has their own set of headphones, where guests can select music from a number of channels to find the tunes they enjoy. Then spend the evening dancing away with friends or trying to guess what song your friends are listening to.
