Pricing
You can create your own residential experience with us, where you can choose as many or as little activities that you would like to do. This is done by building a package, where you’ll book the accommodation, and then you can bolt on any activities to this.
For our residentials, we operate on a price per night per person, and so for a student to stay for the first night, this would be £80pp, and then any additional nights would be £70pp per night. This would include all meals, (breakfast, packed lunch, and a 2-course evening meal). Plus, for every 10 students, 1 staff would go free.
Activities are then bolted on to this package and surfing, bodyboarding, coasteering and canoeing are £21pp. Our Team building session is £11pp
First Aid
All our staff are qualified beach lifeguards, surf coaches and have extra first aid training. First aid and safety equipment are carried on every session.

Testimonials
https://oasurfclub.co.uk/about/reviews/
“I brought 24 students and 3 staff from a school in Bristol for a 1 night action packed residential. We had an excellent stay. The food was good (especially the BBQ) and the staff running the activities were enthusiastic and professional. Coasteering down at Bossiney was a real highlight. Tia and Jess that ran the evening activities did a fantastic job and our year 8 students all had a wonderful time…. as did our staff! Overall, Rob and his team were supper accommodating. I would recommend and I will come again”
