Overall our trip was excellent. Staff at Chateau du Molay think about the teachers as well as the children who are visiting. Their main goal is that everyone has a great time. Thank you.

A unique experience that our students will never forget! Travelbound was instrumental to the success of our Normandy visit. The Château du Molay is such a lovely place!

Everything exceeded our expectations. Trips, if done well, aren’t easy, lots of stress and commitment from staff. However, this was the easiest trip I have ever been involved in. That’s down to your lovely staff and some really great planning.

We are honestly so impressed. This was the first trip I have organised and I felt very looked after by the company both before and during the trip. We sincerely hope to work with you again.

We had a fantastic trip, and even the children who were nervous about being away from home said the trip was brilliant! The Chateau is a great place to stay, and the staff are welcoming and accommodating of our needs.

Travelbound and Chateau du Molay are excellent. All staff we had contact with were friendly, helpful and flexible. This made our job a little bit easier in looking after 40 students. Normandy offers so much for students, but so does the accommodation. The enclosed space for free time was really appreciated by students. We will definitely be returning!

All staff at the Chateau were absolutely fantastic – especially Yamila and Francis, both of whom really helped keep us teachers in the loop. The students also really appreciated Enzo playing football with them. Not only caring about the students, the staff also made our visit as group leaders far more enjoyable.
