Business ID: L#20261019

The property is currently operated as a successful summer camps business, supported by established operations and high-quality facilities, with operations in Switzerland, England, Portugal, and Austria.

A highly trusted international brand operating for 53 years and having taught over 350,000 children and teenagers from over 60 different countries. Poised to capitalise on the increasing trend for middle income parents seeking educational and cultural growth. Importantly, the asset also benefits from a full-time boarding school licence, offering significant optionality for repositioning or expansion into a year-round educational institution.

Premium positioning

The school is a premium priced international brand, positioned in the upper quartile of the European Camps market.

Direct Bookings

• Top-quality performance every year has led to over 87% of bookings now coming direct, so no need for big commissions to agents.
• This results in a wonderfully low and market leading Customer Acquisition Cost of less than 10%, by comparison to the industry average of at least 25%.

Key Highlights

• Prime Alpine location in Switzerland
• Existing, revenue-generating summer camps business
• Full boarding school licence in place
• High-quality infrastructure and facilities
• Flexible operating model with strong repositioning potential

The current owners historically operated the camps business from a separate rented site, meaning the Alpine property can be fully transitioned into a dedicated boarding school, or continue as a hybrid model combining camps and education.

Poised for Growth

The business has successfully emerged from Covid and is now demonstrating consistent year-on-year revenue growth. International summer camp demand remains strong, with stable enrolment and increasing revenues driven by a high-value client base and premium pricing.The continued expansion of off-season school programmes reflects sustained demand from international schools seeking enriching, high-quality educational experiences abroad. Switzerland remains a highly attractive and safe destination, and the operation’s dedicated centre and decades of expertise position it as a trusted partner for schools—many of which return year after year. Parents globally continue to prioritise premium Swiss educational experiences for their children.With the global rise in international schools and a large untapped client base beyond core nationalities, there is significant potential for further growth and enhanced year-round utilisation of the facilities.
