Welcome to Venture Dartington ~ our new preschool opened in 2024

Venture Dartington, the newest Venture preschool setting, sits in a hidden glade amongst the woodlands of the Dartington Estate. Here we have the perfect spot for a truly unique and magical preschool education, full of forest school activities and adventure.​​​

Exploring at Dartington

From our preschool base we have the entire Dartington Estate to roam - woodlands, open meadows and the deer park are all ours to discover.​​

WHAT PEOPLE SAY ABOUT OUR PRESCHOOL AT VENTURE DARTINGTON

Amazing provision. Staff are very attentive and kind, and knowledgeable. My little boy has made huge developments in the short term he’s attended and he absolutely loves it. Could not reccomend any more highly !

After struggling in other preschools our daughter settled instantly at Venture. The team at Dartington are wonderful - caring, gentle, warm, respectful... I feel completely relaxed knowing she is there.

I really feel like you have all had such an impact on her in the few short weeks she's been with you - at home, I've noticed a marked difference in her. She has been much more excited and willing to do things for herself and has been really proud of herself for doing so.
