What They Say

We had an amazing time, the staff looking after us were kind and friendly. It was a little strange being with so many people I didn’t know, but within a few hours it felt like I’d been there ages (in a good way!). The campsite is really good. Sunsets from the top of the hill are beautiful.

First aid and Water Safety training was LOTS more fun than I expected. The activities and instructors were all really good, there was lots of food. My favourite thing was being around the campfire in the evening

It was a great campsite, the tents were big and the showers were really, really nice. I enjoyed the coasteering and the bushcraft. Life saving and first aid were so interesting. Really glad I chose this camp.
