Scout Adventures Reviews 

We are a very local Cub pack, possibly the closest physically to Gilwell park as we meet in Chingford Station road. I have visited the location hundreds of times. It’s a great home for scouting with numerous interesting sites and fun area’s. We visited some of the historic faith sites, the great oak tree and the Training field on this occasion.

Its a great place for a residential. The site is fantastic, with lots of activities available. The staff come from round the world which really adds to the experience!

Jennie booked our Activity after recommending it. Mia ran it extremely well.

Will be sending a separate email with concerns regarding administration.
The activity itself was fine - with the instructor being organised, safe, calm, gave clear instructions and the girls had a lovely time.

the whole weekend was amazing accommodation was amazing, food couldn't ask for better and the staff are so friendly and helpful. we would highly recommend cant wait for next time

We had a great time, thank you! Really helpful, cheerful and efficient staff team.

The fantastic staff mainly, great food, good accommodation.

A really good camp for our Beavers and Cubs.

Accommodation was excellent
Activities were not well lead Scouts were left hanging around .

Easy to book, slightly slow to respond. Friendly and welcoming staff at the site. Good facilities.

Fantastic time at Gilwell Park Scout Centre. Lodges are great for our two weeks pantomime rehearsals.

We stayed in The Branchett Lodge for our Winter Camp and never again. The building was dirty and the electric in the kitchen was faulty due to a leak in the roof. We spent the weekend worrying that the leak would cause a fire in the electric lighting cable, (even though an electrician had removed the light fitting and taped the wires together) and mopping the floor due to water puddles caused by the leaking roof.

It would have been nice for the site to have the nearest toilet block to us open when we arrived rather than us having to ask for it - the site was a good 10-15 minute walk from the nearest open block. Too far. But, to be fair, the block was reopened quickly after our request.

Absolutely fantastic weekend thoroughly enjoyed by all the Scouts. A full and varied program of activities was put on. The instructors were friendly and assertive when needed and also encouraged and motivated the youngsters to give it their best shot and challenge themselves. Continually reinforced a teamwork ethic and got everyone to participate at some point over the weekend. Will definitely attend again in the future.

Our Scouts had a fantastic time for Summer Camp. The staff and volunteers at Great Tower made us most welcome and the activities we booked were well organised.
Thank you

Great site - lots of history and a great range of onsite activities and helpful, friendly staff.

We had an absolutely amazing time, lovely clean accommodation, the food was amazing and they kept us well fed throughout our stay. The staff were absolutely amazing—so friendly, supportive, and dedicated to making our experience unforgettable. They went above and beyond to ensure everyone felt included and had a great time. From organising fun activities to sharing their knowledge and passion for the outdoors, their enthusiasm was contagious. Highly recommend this adventure for anyone looking for adventure and make lifelong memories!

Organised, friendly, safe, active: our children gained a great deal from the experiences and the teaching staff had opportunity to identify needs in children of which we were unaware! Super-helpful! We will be back.

As again fantastic place and lovely staff so very helpful
Broadstone is a truly lovely place .

First class experience for all of our leaders and young people. Well organised activities, lots of fun, great food, good accommodation - highly recommended by 1st Killingworth Scout Group

The staff at Youlbury were incredibly helpful with some last minute changes - (I would add much better when you speak to them in person than via email).
Our group of 16/17year olds had a fantastic time and really appreciated all of the activities put on for them; they even got fully involved in songs around the campfire! We would definitely go back again.
