The Bewl Adventure Rangers camp gives older children full days of outdoor activity at the reservoir over the half-term fortnight. Days run from 8.30am to 4.30pm, so it also works as childcare for working parents.

Highlights

  • Archery, axe throwing and rock climbing
  • Laser tag and bushcraft sessions
  • Ranger badges to earn through the week
  • Camp Fire Friday to round off each week

Good to know

  • Kent and Sussex council half-term is 26 to 30 October, so the first week suits schools with a different break
  • Breakfast and parking are included in the day price
  • Book single days or the whole week online

Christmas at Bewl Water

An elf-led Christmas quest in the woodland at Bewl Water, ending in a private Santa visit personalised with each child's name, age and interests. The quest itself runs for just under two hours, and families are advised to allow around three hours including the food court and play area. Most of the route is under cover, but some sections are outdoors and not all are heated.

Bewl Water

Bewl Water is the South East's largest reservoir, set in the High Weald on the Kent and Sussex border with 13 miles of shoreline. Come for a lakeside walk or bike ride, a watersports session or a summer day on the inflatable Aqua Park, then refuel at the Waterfront Café. It suits families, active groups and dog walkers, and can easily fill a day.

A Fairytale Christmas at Scotney Castle

The Victorian mansion at Scotney is decorated with scenes inspired by favourite fairytales, and a gingerbread trail runs outdoors for children. On selected late nights the gardens are lit with twinkling illuminations. Scotney is just outside Lamberhurst, so it combines easily with other festive outings in the area.

Free event, but normal admission applies (National Trust members free).Directions
