Good site with plenty of activities. Down a country lane through a golf course. Camping field muddy; poor drainage.

A great Scout Campsite with good facilities and activities. Camping on the field. Indoor accommodation is available as well. Activities include, water based, zip line, climbing cube, archery and air rifles. There is a lake that the campsite use which is a short walk down the lane towards the roman lakes. Camping fields have good capacity for large district and county camps. Tree areas are available for hammocks.

Lovely place! Went here for a scout camp and the site was wonderful! The toilets were clean and even provided free menstrual products in the girl's bathroom which was amazing. The views from our tent were gorgeous as well and there was lots of free space and a great little convenience store nearby.
