Reviews

Little Wild Ones - TimberNook London

reviewed by Amybell

Thank you Ausra for another fantastic week of Timbernook this half term. My daughter absolutely loved it and has come away with more amazing stories of her experiences with you and your team. She also seemed completely unfazed by the fact it rained most of the week! Timbernook Wimbledon offers a brilliant opportunity for children to explore the outdoor world, really immerse themselves in it and gain new skills and confidence in what they can achieve if they just give things a go. I couldn't recommend it more highly!
