| Beaumanor Activities | Great venue & facilities for our group. | 04 October 2021 | |
| The Jarman Centre | Very good location for camping with good toilet facilities. The location of the site adjacent to a fast road meant, that for training purposes, it seemed safer to transport the DofE participants a couple of kms along Duchess Drive rather than have them walk directly too and from the site. This is a great location for training, but would have been more challenging for a DofE practice or qualifying expedition. | 04 October 2021 | |
