What a fantastic experience I had. I was a little apprehensive being 62 but I needn’t of worried. My instructor Aston was fantastic she put me at ease the moment we met, and was very patient particularly when I fell in!. I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending the Company to anyone.

We had a fantastic week at Bushy Wood and would like to thank everyone involved. The campsite itself is excellent and perfectly suited our needs. The facilities were outstanding, particularly the toilet and shower blocks, which were clean, modern and greatly appreciated by both Scouts and leaders throughout the week.
