DofE (September 2024)




A large outside camping field with facilities. Issue with locked toilets on arrival but emergency contact phoned and situation resolved. Fewer groups on this time so better space. One group turned up late and were a little noisy post 10pm contacted provider who dealt with it. (July 2024 - Secondary School)

DofE campsite can get very busy with schools and Scout groups. Improvements to facilities could be made to increase toilet and shower and ensure better separate adult facilities. Scouts using venue may be up at night due to their activities. (July 2023 - Secondary School)

World Challenge (June 2023 - Secondary School)




Site was very busy but could take the numbers booked. However, issues from one other school during the night and their staff did nothing about it. Complaints made to Braid wood on email after the event. Toilet door need propping open during the night to stop them banging and keeping everyone awake. (June 2023 - Secondary School)

Camping site good. Scout Camp. Toilet block reasonable although I would not want to use the showers. Frost Centre booked for evening planning and bad weather back up. Ideal for Silver Expedition. (November 2019 - Secondary School)
