Black Mountain Activities

 

Why Black Mountain Activities ?
Here are 5 good reasons...
   
1. REPUTATION
BMA was established in 1992 by Carl and Hugh Durham and has grown in both size and reputation as a provider of high quality Outdoor Pursuits for individuals, families, social groups, businesses, school's, colleges and youth groups. staff/Staff%20photo.jpg
Over recent years we have had the pleasure of working along side, our sister company Adventure Training, having hands on involvement in the training for a variety of prestigious companies both large and small.
 
2. SAFETY
BMA understand the concerns of customers over the perceived dangers of Outdoor Pursuits. Black Mountain Activities safety record is second to none.
We were among the first centres in Wales to be accredited by the Welsh Tourist Board, who introduced a strict accreditation scheme, which inspects operating procedures, risk assessments, staff qualifications and experiences on an annual basis.

With the introduction of the Young Persons Safety Act 1995, even greater safe regulations were imposed on centres dealing with children under the age of eighteen. These centres are now required by law to be licensed by the Adventure Activity Licensing Authority - AALA. BMA is proud to be a fully licensed and accredited centre, using these awards as a minimum standard of excellence to all our customers.
 
3. FLEXIBLE PROGRAMMES
BMA offers a wide range of exciting activities from a half day taster to five day multi activity holidays, giving you the opportunity to sample a variety of activities. For people who would like to take their skills further we run two to five day improver courses.
 
4. ACCOMMODATION
BMA is a non-residential centre, allowing us to keep our costs competitive. Over the years we have built a good list of local accommodation providers who all offer a great service and have come to know the needs of our customers. Whether you are looking for a cosy farmhouse bed and breakfast, a relaxing self catering cottage with open fires, lively family run hotels, large three and four star conference hotels, to camp sites and bunk houses for groups of eighty plus. We are able to offer them all with confidence. Have a look at our current listings
 
5. LOCATION
BMA is situated in the village of Three Cocks, 8 miles East of Brecon, 6 miles West of Hay on Wye, placing us on the edge of the Brecon Beacons National Park and very near the banks of the River Wye. With over five hundred square miles of natural beauty including limestone outcrops and gorges to "Play in" .
