TENTED VILLAGE

Our tented village, pitched on the main site, is a happy medium between an indoor and outdoor residential. It is fully equipped for visitors, taking the stress out of camping.  Girlguiding groups will only need your going away with modules 1-7 to stay. Groups outside of Girlguiding will need to confirm that all adults attending with their group have a current valid DBS check in place.​

key information

The site is equipped with four tents sleeping up to 6 in each, plus one additional sleeping tent for adults, sleeping 4, with the option of having an internal curtain up or down to allow for some personal space.. 
There is also a catering marquee with tables and chairs seating up to 28 people and first aid tent.
All tents are pitched and ready for your arrival.

The kitchen area is in a wooden shelter with 3 sides which includes a fridge freezer, gas stove, gas oven, cool boxes, cooking equipment, crockery and cutlery, etc.
