School visits
Brodick Castle offers 800 years of history. Although the priority is to ensure that pupils increase their knowledge and understanding, we also consider it important that the educational experience is an enjoyable one! We can tailor your visit to suit your needs, from nursery level to tertiary education. From Vikings to Victorians, we provide a unique opportunity to expand on the topics covered at various levels in the curriculum.

A visit can be linked to the Countryside Centre and Ranger Service for the complete environmental experience. The outdoor environment is varied, with a fine collection of plants from all over the world and a wide variety of habitats ranging over seashore, freshwater ponds and burns, woodland, heathland, blanket bog and mountain areas. There is a wildlife garden, weather station, nature room and classroom, and our very popular adventure playground. Brodick has a staff of Rangers and Education Guides who are used to dealing with school groups both on a formal and informal basis.

For non-Trust members there is a charge of £2 per pupil. To discuss your requirements, please contact us on 01770 830395.
