Welcome to Danemead Scout Campsite

“Nestled in the Heart of nature and only 28 minutes from Central London by train is Danemead Scout Campsite.

Set in 34 acres of ancient coppiced woodland with unspoilt beauty, Danemead is the perfect location for any youth organisation wishing to get back to basics and be one with nature. Ranging from grassed Campsites to thick wooded Campsites there’s a spot for everyone. You could even stay in our beautiful cabin and have the best of both worlds.

Owned and managed by four Scout districts and run solely by volunteers, Danemead is dedicated to getting everyone interacting with nature from all walks of life.

We look forward to seeing you.”

News from the Site

The Axis Foundation donated £3,000 to Danemead Scout Camp Site to help convert an existing external toilet into a purpose-design disabled toilet and washroom.

We love Group Visits.  It is our opportunity to throw open our exhibitions and historic rooms for you to browse, learn and enjoy.  Our volunteer guides and stewards are on hand throughout to enhance the experience, truly bringing the stories to life.

Close to London but with the tranquillity of a woodland location, Gilwell Park is famous throughout the world for its Scouting heritage, beautiful setting and stunning range of activities.

Looking for a fun, action-packed adventure to challenge and inspire your club or group? Look no further. We can put together a multi-activity day with a range of your preferred activities from our portfolio.

With over 60 years of experience delivering outdoor education, we are ideally placed to work with you to deliver a bespoke program, whether its your curriculum enrichment week, GCSE’s, educational trip, team building or just a day trip.

Wifi is available in the site centre around the buildings and for users in the indoor accommodation.

With over 30 acres of woodland Danemead Campsite is perfect for playing wide games in.

The site is run entirely by volunteers, and most weekends there is an on site duty warden. They are responsible for the site and to make sure your stay is a pleasant one.

There are numerous walks around the campsite, ranging from the gentle ramble to something a bit further afield.
