Adventurous Activities in a magical forest

WOODLAND SETTING

Oaker Wood is a popular outdoor activity and glamping centre located in a picturesque woodland setting, based on the Herefordshire, Shropshire border. Children will love to discover their adventurous side with activities such as Paintball, High Ropes, Low Ropes Assault Course, Team Building, Target Shooting, Rafting and more. We specialise in residential camps for KS2 and are open all year round.

Our Multi-Activity Days and overnight camps fulfil the PE National Curriculum target of Outdoor and Adventurous Activity Challenges. Children are encouraged to develop leadership skills and team building. Activities combine fun and personal development in a wonderful woodland environment.

CAMPING FUN

Camping is a great way for children to explore the outdoors, the excitement of sleeping in one of our Wooden Glamping Pods with their school friends adds to the whole Oaker Wood Experience.

We have 2 completely separate Glamping Villages so each school has exclusive use of a village, no sharing facilities with other schools. Each village sleeps up to 60 children, or for larger groups both villages can be booked together.

Accommodation is in Wooden Glamping Pods each sleeping between 4 and 8 on bunk beds. Pods have electric lighting and heaters for the colder months. Each Village has a covered communal dining area where you can opt for catered/self catered or a mixture of the two.

At the heart of each Glamping Village is our fire circle. Toasting marshmallows, singing camp fire songs and telling ghost stories all make great memories of an Oaker Wood Camp.

OUTDOOR LEARNING GREAT FOR CHILDREN

Research shows time and time again that outdoor learning can help to boost children's confidence, social skills, and their ability to communicate. It can also offer new physical experiences and can help them to develop a positive attitude towards learning.

At Oaker Wood staff can enjoy watching children flourish and succeed in challenging new surroundings.

We have limited availability for residentials in 2023 and plenty of dates still available in 2024, so if you like what you see, do get in touch!
