The MotivAction Team

With engines revving, armour rolling and tyres screeching, we have a vast selection of thrilling motorised and action activities. You will get the best safety instruction, whilst maximising your time spent on the equipment.

Take your pick from land, sea and air activities; from tanks and buggies to hovercraft and tiger moths, we provide truly memorable experiences. We also have more sedate pastimes for you to try (our Country Pursuits and Rest and Rejuvenation sections follow this one).

The next three sections are a kind of ‘activity buffet’ - please call us on 01438 861821 for an individual quote tailored to your specific requirements.
