What you need to know
Not many Christmas camps come with an Olympic rowing canal attached. The grounds give this one archery, padel courts, a pitch & putt practice range and open space to ride through, so it feels more like an outdoor sports holiday than an indoor casal.
- Bring wheels: a bike or scooter and a helmet are required, and they can stay at the venue between days.
- Two day lengths: 9:00 to 14:00 without lunch, or 9:00 to 17:00 with lunch included.
- Sold in blocks: last year it was one three-day block before Christmas and one four-day block after it.
- Members pay less: Canal members get a lower rate, and non-members are welcome too.
