Kingsley

Centre Facts

Kingsley School is located on the outskirts of the small town of Bideford in the heart of beautiful, rural North Devon, which is a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve.

Several of the UK's outstanding bathing and surfing beaches are nearby, with the closest, Westward Ho!, just a mile away. The National Parks of Exmoor and Dartmoor are within easy driving distance, the South West Coast Path passes within a mile of the school, sailing, rowing and kayaking are popular on the River Torridge, and the Tarka Trail, a 30-mile off-road cycle route passes through the town.

An independent boarding school, Kingsley lies in a peaceful and green 25-acre campus, with modern facilities all on-site. These include a sports hall, tennis courts, dojo and extensive playing fields, a theatre, dance studio and music centre, plus learning facilities, whilst the main kitchen and dining room provide good value, nourishing meals if required.

Accommodation

Three smartly appointed, homely boarding houses complete the accommodation.

There is a mix of single and double rooms, and all the houses include shower and toilet facilities, a kitchen and lounge.
