About This Campsite

Welcome to Cricket Campsite

Cricket Campsite is an ideal retreat for outdoor enthusiasts looking for a versatile and accommodating camping experience. Equipped with ample space for various activities and a well-fitted indoor lodge, this campsite is designed to maximize comfort and adventure. Though details about its exact location remain undisclosed, its reputation for providing memorable scouting and family trips speaks volumes.

What Makes Cricket Campsite Stand Out?

  • Top-notch Facilities: Including well-maintained bunk beds, indoor cooking equipment, and amenities like large and clean toilets and showers.
  • Exciting Activities: Opportunities for climbing, tomahawk throwing, and more, make this a hiker and scout's dream location.
  • Child-Friendly: With excellent instructors who create a welcoming atmosphere for young campers, making activities safe and engaging for children.
  • Convenient Location: Though specific details are missing, it offers easy access to the motorway and is close to a large supermarket for convenience.

Important Tips:

While the campsite boasts numerous amenities and a wide range of activities, some visitors have noted that certain facilities might be due for updates. The toilet block, in particular, may feel a bit worn and could benefit from some refurbishment care. Also, the campsite features a large car park that could be slightly confusing to navigate at night.

Overall Thoughts

Cricket Campsite seems like an exciting place to explore nature, make new friends, and engage in both relaxing and thrilling activities. With its strong focus on providing excellent support to scouts and families, it ensures that every visitor leaves with remarkable memories.

Great facilities, nice space for activities, amazing climbing wall + instructors, nice indoor cooking equipment, bunk beds maximise use of space. Overall a great campsite.

Wonderful location for Cubs. My son loved the tree climbing. The instructor was excellent with the children.

This is an excellent scouting place.⛺ Surrounded by woods🌳, with many activities🚴‍♂️🏏 surrounding the area,such as tomohawk throwing, and the local scout group. The hut has great facilities, such as large and clean toilets🚽 (with showers), (FREE WIFI!)📡, and a nice open area by the entrance🚪 (inside) with comfy chairs💺 and tables opposite the kitchen.The car park is very big, but confusing to drive in at night.🌙 During the night🌙, there are bright automatic lights🔅, which turn on when you walk underneath them.💯

Nice campsite with great access to the country park and a reasonable range of onsite activities. The toilet block however is very tired (July 2017) and the site as a whole could do with a bit of TLC.

Perfect for a week or weekend camp with activities, well fitted lodge and good camping area. Brilliantly located just off the motorway and close to a large supermarket
