SCOUTS, GUIDES & YOUTH CLUBS

helping create the very best adventures

acres of camping land for over 1000 campers
years owned by the Birmingham Scout Association
songs sung around the campfire

Scout and Guide camping is at the heart of what we do. We have been owned by the Birmingham Scout Association for 47 years so have plenty of Scouting heritage.

 

We believe every child has the right to an adventure and every leader who gives up their own time to support others should be treated like a hero!

Our camping experience is perfect for those who are looking for a one stop shop. We have over 20 adventurous activities here, including water sports so you can have a fun packed weekend or week and still have plenty to do. We are based in Bromsgrove so in a great central location with easy access to the motorways and local public transport. We also offer great indoor accommodation or tented villages if you fancy a change from camping.

 

We will be here to make the experience as enjoyable as possible, by helping you with everything from your activity programme to where the nearest fish and chip shop is! A large majority of us are from a Scout or Guide background so it is our passion to ensure you and the young people who visit us have a brilliant time!

The Group Room

This large indoor room is such a versatile area, which can be used for so many events such as AGM’s, Scout meetings, training sessions or as an activity day base. There are male and female toilets and a small food prep area with hot water, fridge, microwave and toaster.

The Dry Shelter

The Dry Shelter is a large space ideal for enjoying running around under a covered roof or using as an indoor base. This space can also be used for training sessions, club get togethers plus much more. The stunning glass apex makes this space feel like you are still immersed in the outdoors.
