MOVING HOUSE IS STRESSFUL…

…but moving an entire campsite? ⛺️

We’re shifting things around at the center and giving our residential camps (for schools and groups) some TLC. We’re moving tents and tuning up the grounds, and it’s all part of a bigger plan…

From lifting tents by crane, to reshaping the layout, the team is going all-in to get the site looking pristine. Why? Because the next wave of adventure-seeking schools and groups deserve the ultimate stay outdoor experience.

We can’t reveal everything just yet, but trust us, your next trip here is going to look a little different.

Have you got an educational stay planned for Winter 2026/27? Special offers still available, teachers get in touch to find out more.

A UNIQUE FAMILY EXPERIENCE

The main aim of our charity is to help families and children to play and grow together, and this is a perfect chance!

Our artificial cave system is dark, but not total darkness, you’ll enter The Cave Experience with a head torch!

As you clamber and squeeze through narrow rocky sections and emerge in three main chambers, you’ll come across paintings, fossils and other underground unknowns along the way!

Special thanks to for this cool video - it’s great to show what can be expected at The Cave Experience!

This experience might be something TOTALLY DIFFERENT to anything you’ve ever tried before. It’s challenging, yet fun, but it’s also dark and the tunnels might feel a bit spooky.

For this reason, we recommend The Cave Experience for ages 9+. We do allow younger children to have a go when accompanied with their parent/carer (and we offer the accompanying adult a free ticket) so you can help your child and join in the adventure!

Pre-book your General Admission online, then pay in the park and book your time slot for this experience on the day when you arrive.

£8 per person, ages 9+ (or 5+ with an adult)
FREE TICKET for adult accompanying their child aged 5-8 years.
Experience duration: it depends on your crawling speed! Approx 20-30 mins on average.

BLINDFOLDED AT 30 FEET IN THE AIR!

Imagine scaling a vertical obstacle course, navigating every twist, turn, and barrier as you climb higher into the sky.

Now imagine doing all of it... completely blindfolded!

That’s exactly what some of our adventurers at SMASH Camps pulled off on our vertical obstacle course!

Relying entirely on feel, pure instinct, and the voices of their teammates belaying them from the ground, they conquered the challenge with total trust and zero fear.

Talk about taking teamwork and courage to a whole new level! 🔥🙌

Would your child give this a go? (Blindfold optional, but high adrenaline guaranteed!)

📍 Only at Stubbers school holiday club (Upminster)

£59 per day, childcare vouchers and tax-free childcare accepted.

Drop off 8:30am/9:00am
