It was a good centre for students to camp at for a Duke of Edinburgh Bronze Award. The thing that let it down was there was only one hot shower.

The best Scout centre campsite I have visited. Great facilities and wonderful woodland environment with various areas for outdoor camping. Wet weather areas and cabins for indoor stopovers. Beautifully maintained.
