Your journey to a safe harbour
Skern means ‘safe harbour’ which is a fitting name for our approach. We provide a safe, welcoming and comfortable environment for guests to learn and try new activities in the great outdoors.
Our staff have a real commitment to personal service, and we try to ensure that each guest receives individual attention in a relaxed, supportive setting, so that they feel confident to take on new challenges and experiences.
