Project overview
Basecamp was originally set up for school activity camps. When the Covid pandemic hit and schools were closed, Basecamp sat empty. We soon realized it could be safely opened up for families and small groups. On the 16th July 2020, Basecamp opened to the public for the first time. Families loved the location, the space and the freedom to camp wherever they liked and enjoy a campfire. Basecamp was an immediate hit.
We improve our facilities every year and now have five toilet blocks, four shower blocks and two washing up areas. Our check-in tent has evolved into a Pavilion serving hot and cold food, breakfast rolls, pizzas, local beer and cider and ice-cream plus a fully stocked shop with souvenirs and a proper barista coffee machine with comfy seating areas.
Our Glamphouse 6 safari tents sleep up to six people and are the perfect option if you don’t have your own tent and like to camp in style
