OVERVIEW
WORK IN WILTSHIRE UK
The newest and now biggest outdoor activity centre in The Working Holiday Club’s™ portfolio!
Wiltshire has been a special place for a very long time, and our World Heritage Site stands testament to the ages. Stonehenge and Avebury have a magnetism that has drawn people to them for centuries. But history in Wiltshire is not just ancient – Romans, Normans and Saxons have all left their mark on our countryside and towns. Come today and you can walk through time – here in Wiltshire, you can touch and feel the past.

STAFF ACCOMMODATION
When you are offered a position to work in one of our Adventure Resorts, you will be offered on-site shared accommodation, free of charge! Yes, that’s right… you don’t pay rent! What a great way to start your working holiday!
Living and working on site certainly has its perks. For starters, there’s no need to get up too early as the commute to work is usually in the region of 30 seconds to five minutes. However, the actual benefits of living on the site go far beyond this. They’re a real community spirit and a fantastic sense of camaraderie amongst the staff team. Living onsite gives you the opportunity to socialise with your work colleagues and enjoy the centre’s facilities.
