Hippotel, Opal Coast
Set within the forest near the Canche Estuary and Le Touquet, this hotel has a full range of activities and facilities making it ideal for school groups.
The rolling fields of the Opal Coast are swathed with red poppies and the coastline itself is a mixture of traditional fishing villages and seaside resorts. Both of these factors are pertinent to school parties and provide a varied list of excursions and activities for students. The Opal Coast is very close to the UK and perfect for studying history, geography and practising language skills.
