The site has stunning views on to open countryside and is a peaceful private location for camps, overnight stays, day and evening visits.
Jubilee Hut
The Jubilee hut was built in 2004 and this offers comfortable accommodation for overnight stays for 18 people and also facilities for camps of 36.
Jubilee Campsite
The site has access to a spinney which gives opportunities for backwoods and patrol cooking, camp fires and challenges. There is parking for up to ten cars. Jubilee Camp Site has an inside disabled toilet and Leaders room in the hut, covered outside toilets and wash cubicles and four storage sheds for equipment.
We have an area behind the hut which has been resurfaced and makes a great flat play area, cat walk or a super bowling alley. There are a variety of skittles and bowling balls in the cupboards under the seating at the back of the hut, near a new bag of play equipment. You choose how many play. We suggest you put the Skittles between half and two thirds down the alley but it is entirely up to you. Enjoy and don’t forget to buy a bowling badge.
Our new brick built pizza oven is very easy to use and makes a delicious meal
Autumn and Summer challenges are available to complete (with badges to buy)
Update 30/04/2026 – Jubilee is celebrating its 90th birthday and we have created a challenge that might be useful for your visit. Laminated copies of this challenge will be at the site. Please find a copy of this challenge in the Useful Information tab
