Outdoor Adventure Trips for Uniform Groups

Our Adventure camps are a firm favourite with uniform groups such as the Scouts, Guides, Combined Cadet Force (CCF), Boys Brigade and others because it’s camping made easy. Our tented villages are all set up ready for your arrival, we provide all the catering in your own village marquee and our experienced NGB Qualified/assessed team deliver a full programme of activities.  We even provide proper beds! You can find out more about the Acorn Village here. Insert link.

Also, as our itineraries and activities are more technical than your average residential centre, this suits young people seeking a real adventure.

New for 2017 we are opening a new Tipi Adventure camp at Ryhdd Covert (a scout campsite in the West Midlands). Find out more here.

Making it easy for you

We want to make the whole experience as easy as possible for you so we organise your travel arrangements (for overseas trips), your camp will all be set up ready for your arrival and you’re given a direct number and email of a dedicated contact in the office who will arrange everything for you.  During your trip, you’ll have your own Village Manager to take care of your needs who will also organise all evening activities should you need them to.

Value for money

You’re always under pressure to keep costs you pass on to parents/carers down, which is why we work hard to keep prices affordable with no hidden extras.  We try to suit all budgets starting with a weekend in the Brecon Beacons for £54pp+ VAT, all food, drink, kit, activities and evening entertainment.…
