About Summer work at Stackpole

Help bring light to the woodland floor by clearing invasive laurel and shrub.

Come to the stunning Stackpole Estate and help the ranger team create a space in the woods amongst a wildlife haven. You will be clearing invasive laurel and scrub to create an open streamside glade where people can come and stop a while to observe some wonderful woodland wildlife. We will be building benches, bridges and pathways using timber sourced from our own woods, all set within Britain’s only coastal National Park.

About the accommodation

This converted barn has been recently refurbished and offers large bunkhouse accommodation. There are two separate corridors of rooms upstairs, full kitchen facilities, a large communal eating area, games room with pool, table tennis and bathroom facilities downstairs.
