WE OFFER THREE PGL TRAVEL OPTIONS: UK HOLIDAYS


1. Fully Escorted Travel A PGL member of staff travels with your child from the meeting point (see list opposite), where they are signed in, to arrival at the centre. On return, we escort your child back to the meeting point, where the Travel Courier will remain on duty until all children are collected. Escorted travel to and from UK centres is available in the Summer on Saturdays, with the exception of Little Canada where it’s also available on a Monday to Friday 4 night mini break, see opposite. With adult supervision all the way to, and from, the centre, fully escorted travel is a popular choice with many parents. Most journeys are by coach (fi tted with lap belts). Some also include rail travel, such as the journey from London to Beam House, or a short ferry crossing in the case of Little Canada.


Getting your child to and from our centres couldn’t be easier. You can drop off your children at any of our UK centres, but if your chosen centre is too far away to easily drive, you may wish to use one of our superb PGL travel service options. This way, you can be sure that your child reaches us safely.


For children on holiday in the UK for more than one week, escorted inter-centre transfers are available between most centres.


2. Station Transfer


For children old enough to travel alone by train, we offer a pick-up service from the station nearest to each centre. This service is only escorted from the arrival station to the centre, and vice versa. Our staff will meet arrivals at the station between 15.30 and 16.30. At the end of the holiday, they will return guests to the station for trains departing between 09.00 and 10.00. This service is only available for Saturday arrivals and departures. Please note this service does not include rail tickets, which you must book and give to your child.


3. Airport/Eurostar pick-ups


For children travelling from outside the UK, we offer an escorted travel service to our centres from Heathrow airport, and the London Eurostar terminal;
