General Rugby Festival Information

Reward your team for their continued support each season with a fantastic start to the 2022/23 season by enjoying a rugby tour to Burleigh Travel’s new and exciting mini & junior rugby festival taking place over the October Half Term.

The weekend is designed to give your team a tour to remember and a break from the traditional holiday parks with arcades and limited outdoor facilities that many of you will have tried before. Instead we are offering you a combination of exhilarating team building activities and an action packed day of rugby, at Ashford Rugby Club, competing against both local and touring teams!

Set in the grounds of a former manor house in Ashford, Kent, you will be staying at Grosvenor Hall; a large outdoor education centre offering you the opportunity to immerse your young rugby players in high adrenaline excitement.

During your tour you will have the opportunity to enjoy a range of challenging activities that take place in a safe and secure environment under the supervision of qualified staff, as well as a cinema area and a 25,000 sq ft sports hall which caters for a wide range of indoor activities; all of which are included for the players in your tour package.
