Youth Weekends at Beam House
Beam House is set in a beautiful wooded valley bordered on three sides by the River Torridge. A popular walk along part of the South West Coast Path from Abbotsham gives groups an ideal opportunity to explore the spectacular coastline.
Within the centre itself, there is a variety of adventure activities available such as zip wire, high ropes and climbing, designed to encourage young people to challenge themselves, help and support each other and experience personal and team success. At the end of each day, you and your group will find comfort and relaxation in our purpose-built accommodation.
