2025 Update
We have purchased 3 foldaway Z-beds for leaders use when sleeping over in the lodge, and new sleeping mats for the girls.
Upon arrival:
You will be met by your volunteer warden on arrival and shown the facilities and the site. The warden will also see you out at the end of your stay and go through the departure checklist with you. There is a Welcome Pack in the Lodge where all the information is also available
Please note: you will need to confirm your ideal arrival and departure times on your ARRIVAL FORM. This needs to be with the Warden Manager 6 weeks before your visit to ensure wardens are in place.
Please note: wardens are volunteers and although they will try to accommodate your choice of arrival / departure times - on occassion this may need to be negotiated.
