About Camp Wilderness at Blenheim Palace

Throughout the summer Blenheim Estate welcomes Camp Wilderness, offering back-to-basics 3 and 5 Day residential camping experiences for children aged 8 – 14 years in the heart of Blenheim’s historic woodland. This diverse woodland is filled with old oaks and beeches, as well as many younger plantations, creating a wonderful home from home for the kids.

Good to know

The summer camps are held in safari-style tented woodland camps, with beautiful bell tents, large tipis and yurts.
The central yurt and campfire create a cosy hub with seating all around for socialising during the downtime, there’s also an outdoor kitchen and the sleeping tents surrounding the camp.
All activities take place in and around the woodland camp.
Each camp caters for a maximum of 60 children, who will be split into tribes on arrival (you can specify your children’s tribe buddies when booking).
Children will stay in large single-sex bell tents, sleeping in groups of 8 to 10.
Each family will have their own tent for up to 6 occupants, these are bell tents which are 10 ft wide and will have more than enough room for everyone.
All the meals are freshly cooked on-site by experienced field cooks, and made up of high-quality ingredients. The menu changes daily, offering a wide variety of delicious, exciting meals, all of which are eaten communally, around the central campfire.
The children are also taught how to prepare their own meals, cooking over open fires.
Every camp is a nut-free zone, and caters for every dietary requirement and food allergy, including vegetarian, pescetarian, vegan, halal, gluten free, nut free, lactose free and kosher diets.
