Located on the Kent Downs, our bushcraft camp is in an ancient woodland in a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. We have access to some 60 or so acres of broadleaf woodland situated entirely within private land.
The woodland contains some 25 or so species of native trees, more species of wild flowers than we’ve been able to count and an abundance of wildlife. We’re also able to take advantage of the surrounding fields and hedgerows for collecting plants on foraging walks.
Facilities at our bushcraft camp
People come to us because they want to learn; for that to happen we need to ensure that you’re warm and dry and so we’ve set up an expedition style bushcraft camp with:
-
A yurt and wood burning stove (and an ample supply of firewood!) for use in the colder months,
-
A large, covered rest area complete with kettle,
-
A kitchen area so we can cook up good food,
- A large dinning table so that we can sit together and eat,
- A covered outdoor classroom,
-
Work benches, and
-
A composting toilet.
We have areas where you can pitch a hammock, tarp or small tent, cleared of standing and hanging dead wood.
Between Easter and the end of October you can use the showers on a nearby campsite if you wish; there’s no extra charge for this.
