Camp Kindling

★★★★★

The most wonderful weekend every family should experience! We danced, we learnt new skills, we challenged ourselves, and most importantly we had the most amount of fun in one weekend ever! If you're thinking about - just do it. You won't regret it!

We had the most amazing, wholesome experience at camp kindling! Great facilities (clean toilets, showers, cooking area, access to hot and cold water) fabulous activities, games and shows. Food on site was great and really good value! Everyone is very welcoming, and it is a safe environment for children. Just a simply amazing weekend for all young and old!

I love it here, some really lovely memories over multiple years. Friendly camping (though some tetchy parents by the end of the weekend often make me sad for the kids), decent food and drink, good activities, the toilets (plenty of them, and all well looked after), the showers (again, clean and well looked after, and I have only seen 1 short period where there was no heat)... It's just a great time to spend time with your family/friends, really relaxed... the staff are all really lovely too, welcoming and just want to see you have a good time, thanks so much Lee and Jules for working so hard to do it every year Xx

What can I say about Camp Kindling, it was incredible! By far the best place I have ever taken my children and tops any other holidays we have ever had! Why? Because it offers families a captivating outdoor retreat that caters to all age groups, providing an idyllic setting for multigenerational bonding and exploration of the natural world. Nestled in the countryside in Kent just 20 minutes from our home, this camp was the perfect destination to disconnect from screens and for my whole family to immerse ourselves in a diverse array of activities that promote unity, personal development, and a chance to embrace the simplicity of life outdoors.We stayed in the Boutique Camping which was equipped with clean showers and toilets with no queues making it perfect for families with little ones. It also had a pampering tent providing a place to dry and straighten my hair, do my make up and even charge my phone!Camp Kindling's activities were carefully curated to accommodate a variety of interests and ages. From traditional outdoor pursuits like hiking and campfires to tailored workshops on wilderness survival skills and family-friendly nature crafts, the camp ensured that every family member found an activity to cherish. Knowledgeable instructors lead these engaging experiences, infusing each session with enthusiasm and expertise. We enjoyed all the activities we took part in and the majority of these were drop-ins but with no queues! The boys were kept busy all day long, they enjoyed zorbing, nerf gun wars, rock climbing wall, crazy golf, mask and flag making, the water slide, t-shirt making and a scavenger hunt! All of which were included in the price, making Camp Kindling great value for money.A standout highlight of Camp Kindling was its focus on building family bonds! Through team challenges and interactive games, as a family we had the opportunity to discover the joys of working together. The camp's supportive environment encouraged each family member to step beyond our comfort zone, cultivating newfound skills and boosting self-confidence all while deepening our connection with the natural environment. In our party we had people aged between 4 and 68!The entertainment don’t stop in the evening, the evening was packed with entertainment including games and discos! The best bit being that the music was music that the adults could enjoy too.Camp Kindling provided a wide variety of different foods to try and every place we ate from was so so good!Overall, Camp Kindling (situated in Kent) is the perfect place to enable you to create an enriching and memorable outdoor experience with the whole family! With a mix of nature-inspired activities, skilled instructors, and a strong focus on family bonding, the camp offers families an exceptional opportunity to create lasting memories, strengthen relationships, and enjoy the great outdoors providing a break from screens. We will 100% be coming back next year!

We attended in 2025 for our 4th year and made some wonderful memories as a family.The booking system worked better than in previous years and the activities ran smoothly throughout the weekend, and we did most things we wanted. There just isn’t time to do absolutely every activity, there is literally so much going on across the camp.It’s a lovely atmosphere with families everywhere just enjoying time with kids and having fun. We were doing around 25k steps a day!My youngest is coeliac and there was ample food for her at base camp, really beautifully cooked but killed my pocket! £17 for GF quiche with a tiny side salad for a child.The camp fire was great for toasting marshmallows and the activities all around were fantastic.We did lots of activities and so many were great:Beading was terrific as always, and the skateboarding guys were so patient with the kids. Woodland theatre was amazing as was African Harmonies; singing with other families under the tree canopy, beautiful.Aerial is always great, and capture the flag is a winner. One of the best things we do is the family yoga, it fosters great connection and memories.The acts were very, very poor in comparison to previous years but the Clubhouse made up for it with the carnival party.Much more Londoners than in previous years, and more families with under 5s rather than tweens, which meant wagons everywhere.Overall it’s a dream weekend and you will definitely get out what you put in. We left with happy hearts and souls and will remember our Camp Kindling experiences forever.

We had the most incredible time at Camp Kindling’s 5th anniversary! It was a truly magical weekend packed with over 100 activities, live DJs, bands, comedians, and storytelling. There was never a dull moment — my kids were completely absorbed from morning to night, running from one adventure to the next with huge smiles on their faces.The atmosphere was electric, with so much creativity and energy everywhere you turned. From dancing to live music under the stars to sharing laughs at the comedy shows, every moment felt special. The kids had a wicked time making new friends, trying new things, and creating memories that will stay with them for a lifetime.It’s rare to find an event that blends fun for children and adults so seamlessly, but Camp Kindling nailed it. We left with tired feet, full hearts, and a promise that we’ll be back next year.

This was our first time at Camp Kindling, and we had a fantastic experience filled with fun and laughter. The camp brings immense enjoyment to children and allows us parents to revisit and regress back to our childhood. The variety of new activities we experience and achieve as a family will be unforgettable. We're already looking forward to next year and Camp Kindling's 5-year anniversary. We'll be back as part of the Squirrels crew, aiming to win the camp trophy. Go, Squirrels!
