Experience Overview

Updated this week

Camp Kindling is a Summer Camp for Families.

Best described as half adventure camp, half music festival, it is a mini-holiday unlike anything you’ve experienced before.

A magical weekend to spend screen-free time in nature, connect as a family and create incredible memories.

Who It’s For

Camp Kindling is designed exclusively for families.

It is for parents that want to spend quality time with their children doing adventures and creative things. If you value shared experiences, trying new things, meeting new people and embracing a bit of silliness you’ll have an incredible time.

Our programme and facilities cater for all age groups and family sizes to ensure everyone has an incredible experience. From toddlers to grandparents, and single parents to massive multi-generational families, everyone is welcome.

Whether it’s your first time at an outdoor event or you’re a seasoned pro; you’ll find a warm, supportive community and a joyful, welcoming atmosphere!

Core Programme

Everything in our core programme is included in your tickets, so you can create a custom schedule perfectly tailored to your family.

Activities

Choose from over 100 amazing activities, with options from Beekeeping to Quad Biking. Our activities are designed for families to enjoy pushing their boundaries and learning together.

Games

From board games to sock wrestling, and quizzes to gunge tanks, we love a little competition with a huge dose of silliness. All ages can join the camaraderie and get involved in games across the weekend.

Entertainment

Choose from over 50 magical performances including Live Music, DJs, Theatre, Talks and Comedy. You can dance together, giggle your socks off and feel wowed by shows before cosying up round a campfire for marshmallows and stories.

Extra Programme

There is a small extra cost if you wish to add any of these optional extras to your schedule.

Sanctuary

A tranquil adults only space nestled in a peaceful forest clearing with full spa and wellness facilities! Treat yourself to a massage treatment, or a spa session with wood fired hot tubs and saunas. It’s the perfect retreat for parents and guardians to relax, recharge, and reconnect.

Location

Camp takes place on a stunningly beautiful private estate with rolling hills, ancient woodlands and serene lakes. Just 1hr from London in Sevenoaks, Kent it is easily accessible by road and rail with onsite parking and station shuttles.

Timings

This magical place only exists for one weekend each year in Aug. We recommend staying for the duration to make the most of your experience but you can come and go as you please.

Community

Community is at the heart of what we do. We bring together families who value adventure and creativity to share ideas, knowledge and experiences. From our online groups to the fields of Camp, the atmosphere is welcoming, supportive and full of joy.

To enhance that communal spirit, families can choose to join one of four Patrols; the Hawks, Badgers, Foxes or Squirrels and earn patrol points for them across the weekend. This is a fun way to bond, meet others, and feel part of something bigger.

Accommodation

Tickets include space in general camping if you have your own camping equipment.

Alternatively we can provide you with a Pre-pitched tent for a small extra cost.

For a luxurious glamping experience we offer bell tents, tipis and en-suite wooden cabins in our Boutique Campsite.

If you have a live-in vehicle such as a campervan or caravan then you can book a pitch with an electrical hookup.

Facilities

We give you the adventure of camping and the excitement of a festival, without any of the hassle! We know just how important it is to cover all your families basic needs so you can relax and focus on the fun. We ensure there are always plenty of clean toilets, warm showers, sinks, baby facilities, cooking areas and picnic tables for a comfortable and hygienic weekend.

Food & Drink
