We are a traditional “Backwoods” style campsite in Radcliffe, Manchester, for use by Scouts, Guides, youth groups and other organisations.
The site consists of over 50 acres of English woodland, a large camping field, toilet block and Walter Martin Lodge with indoor accommodation for 22.
We pride ourselves on providing a facility not generally available in the Greater Manchester area – a rare opportunity for young people to get away from the pressures and distractions of modern life.
The site is available for any size of group – the main field can easily cater for 500 people, equally as can several small Groups or Patrols.
Everyone is welcome and we can normally accommodate any type of event.
As well as the main camping field, we also have 25 acres of woodland – perfect for remote camping, shelter building, wide games and pure Scouting skills.
Walter Martin Lodge has accommodation for 22, consisting of 4 dormitories and a separate ‘leaders’ dormitory. There is a fully equipped kitchen and a large hall for meals and activities
