Pool is a Huge Asset

Excellent camp facilities. Great staff – management, activity leaders and kitchen crew. The set up of the buildings makes supervision easy – ensuites, games rooms at each end, dining in the middle. Pool is a huge asset for the free time.

Frequently asked questions

What are the sleeping arrangements?

Campers sleep in bunk rooms and glamping tents of 8-11 children of the same gender. Children under 9 are not permitted on top bunks in line with Australian safety standards. Some rooms have ensuites, while others use nearby gender-specific bathroom facilities. Campers should bring a sleeping bag or doona and sheet unless they have mad e aprior arrangment to hire linen. Subject to the weather we like to try and include a night of camping on 4 nights camps in summer. Younger campers might sleep on the verandah, and older campers in a tent or under a tarp.
