Campsite 4

A large wooded area normally hired as one site but can be split and booked for two small troop size camp. Often booked by D of E groups as it feels out of the way but has easy access to the Kinver Edge via the Comber Road pedestrian gate (coded lock). As this site is under the tree there is little grass cover.

Campsite 5

A small site in a wood area suitable for a couple of patrols to camp. The site can feel out of the way to the rest of the camp but is still close to all the services. Popular with D of E groups and Explorer Scout Units as it is right by the Comber Road pedestrian gate (coded lock) which leads directly to Kinver Edge.

Campsite 7

Campsite 9

A patrol or small Troop size grass area which gives a feeling of isolation from other sites. Like sites 7 and 8 there is a fairly steep bank up to the site. A nice quiet site good for smaller groups who want to be out of the way of the main site.
