Experience the Best of Château du Molay Life: Activities That Bring School Trips to Life
A school trip abroad should be more than just sightseeing – it should be a fully immersive, engaging experience that students remember for years to come. Nestled in the heart of Normandy, Travelbound’s very own Château du Molay offers just that. Designed specifically with school groups in mind, our site blends historic charm with a dynamic, activity-packed environment. But what does that actually look like for students? Let’s explore everything they can enjoy without even stepping off the grounds.
A Warm Welcome and Expert Support
From the moment your group arrives, our dedicated on-site Château team is on hand to ensure your stay runs smoothly. Whether it’s coordinating activities, organising evening entertainment, or assisting with mealtimes, our friendly staff are there every step of the way. Teachers can relax knowing everything is covered, while students are free to focus on the fun.
Adventure and Adrenaline in a Safe Setting
One of the biggest draws of Château du Molay is the range of outdoor activities designed to build confidence, foster teamwork, and most importantly, provide unforgettable fun.
Archery and Archery Tag let students test their aim and agility, combining skill with excitement. For those looking for a bit more of a thrill, axe throwing provides a unique challenge in a fully supervised environment – always a highlight for many groups.
Survivor activities, problem-solving challenges, and our team challenge sessions are perfect for encouraging leadership and collaboration. Whether it’s building shelters, navigating obstacles, or working through puzzles, these activities build more than just skills – they create lasting bonds.

Sports and Movement
The château grounds are perfectly equipped for a variety of sports, catering to all interests. From multi-sports courts for netball, basketball, volleyball, handball and dodgeball, to our popular frisbee golf course, there’s something for every student, whether competitive or just curious.
Our seasonal outdoor heated swimming pool is always a hit between May and September. It offers the perfect chance to cool off and enjoy between adventures. And for those looking for something a bit different, slacklining and the sensory trail offer a blend of physical coordination and mindfulness in a peaceful, natural setting.
