To speak to our friendly team, please call us on 01603 851000 or use the online live chat facility (bottom right hand corner of your screen). . Our offices are open from 8.30am to 5pm Monday to Friday. We operate extended hours midweek & on Saturdays in lead up to camp dates. If you wish to contact us out of hours, you can call us on the 01603 851000 and leave us a voicemail and we will call you back or you can leave us an offline chat message or email us.
All the activities on the main camp timetable are included in your child’s booking with Camp Beaumont. The camp timetable will be available in the sign in/out area at camp and show what your child will be doing each day. However, we do have some available Action Extra activities which you can choose to upgrade to at an additional cost. These action extras give children a more specialised session with focus on something they may have shown an interest in, from horse riding to baking. These can be purchased before camp starts, or your child can be added to the register during camp time if we have availability – just speak to a member of camp management on site!
Booking with Camp Beaumont couldn’t be easier! Once you have decided on your holiday period, venue and dates, you can book quickly and easily online. You can also place a booking over the phone by contacting our friendly sales team on 01603 851000, or contact us via live chat.
UPDATE: Due to current restrictions, Action Extras are not available at Easter 2021.
Action Extras run alongside the ordinary camp timetable. The full list of what is on offer can be accessed in the programmes menu, but please check the availability section if you are considering an Action Extra to check it runs at the site you are booking. Action Extras are optional and can either be paid for before camp or during. At a certain point in the day, children will be taken from their normal group by an instructor to their Action Extra session. They will spend the session learning new skills and having more focus from a specialist instructor to work on something that they really enjoy. For most action extras, children do not need to bring anything extra to camp, with the exception of Learn to Swim and Horse Riding. For Horse Riding, children will need closed-toe shoes with a slight heel, a long-sleeved top and long trousers and waterproofs: horse riding goes ahead come rain or shine! Please be aware that children will be taken off-site for horse riding – usually for either a full morning or a full afternoon session. For Learn to Swim, children will need their swimming kit, a towel, armbands (if required) and goggles. After the Action Extra activity, instructors will return children to their normal groups and they will continue on the normal camp timetable.
Of course, as much as we would love to rely on the Great British weather, we cannot always ensure the weather stays fine for your child’s time at camp! However, we do not let a little rain stop us. All timetables are planned with a ‘wet weather’ alternative which means that the majority of activities will still be able to take place indoors. Of course, there are some exceptions to this – but where an activity is missed because it cannot take place, we work our hardest to replace it with an equally enjoyable alternative
Yes - it depends on the timing of your booking. Booking early enough gives you the most flexibility with our deposit options. Deposits are £10 per child per day & £60 per child per week. After the balance due dates, bookings will need to be paid in full at the time of booking.
We run camps throughout all the school holidays but dates vary between venues. For exact dates and the venues, have a look at the ‘Dates & Prices’ section of our website
If you have made your booking online you will receive a summarised confirmation email to the email address you provided when making your booking. Within 24 hours* of making the booking you will receive full confirmation. If you have made the booking by phone you will be emailed full confirmation, within 1 hour of placing the booking. Please make sure you check your invoice and let us know right away if anything is incorrect. Responsibility for all booking details lies with the person who made the booking. *Please allow up to 48 hours for your full emailed confirmation for any bookings placed online over the weekend. If you do not receive your emailed confirmation, please check your junk folders before contacting us: sometimes they can appear in there.
You'll find all the information you need ahead of camp in our Parents Centre at the top of this page. The week before camp starts, we'll also email you the contact details of the camp you've booked, in case you need to contact them directly during your child's time with us.
We have a number of different payment options. You can either pay via credit/debit card (Visa/Mastercard - we don't currently accept American Express), Childcare Vouchers online or over the phone. If you book early you can pay a deposit and the remainder at a later date.
UPDATE: Due to current restrictions, lunches are not available as an added extra for Easter camps. Please provide a packed lunch for your child each day, plus a morning/afternoon snack.
We are able to provide a cold packed lunch at most of our camp locations for £6.50 per day for any parent who wishes for us to. The majority of parents provide a packed lunch for their child. Please note however we are a ‘nut-aware camp’ so please do not pack anything with nuts in it. We also recommend that you place ice blocks within the lunchbox to keep the food fresh until lunchtime.
UPDATE: Due to the current climate, we are offering additional flexibility to support our customers and move your booking if things change.
We understand that childcare plans may change. Camp Beaumont want to be as flexible as possible for every customer. If you need to switch your dates and we still have space at the camp on the dates you'd like to move to, we can make these changes free of charge. Please note however, changes can only be made if at least 10 working days before your child is due to attend. You cannot make alterations to bookings online, you can either call us on 01603 851000 or email us at customerservices@campbeaumont.co.uk or use live chat (in the bottom right hand corner of your screen). Please see our Terms & Conditions for full details.
We are unable to set up a payment plan, however, if you book early enough, you can pay an initial deposit with the final balance due 48 days before the holiday period starts.
We will be back offering inspiration multi-activity camps this Easter at over 20 venues across London and the Home Counties.
Having successfully and safely operated camps last summer, October half term and at Christmas, we have developed comprehensive COVID-safe protocols. Visit our Covid Policy for the latest on what we are doing to keep everyone safe.
Keep an eye on our Blog and Social Media Channels for further updates. Our goal is to continue to offer a much needed service to parents in the safest way possible and continue inspiring children throughout the school holidays.
If you cancel then our booking terms and conditions will apply as normal, however we are offering extra flexibility to reschedule your booking to a later date.
Unfortunately not, once a group bubble is set we cannot move children between them to ensure we keep everyone safe and avoid any spread of COVID-19 throughout the pandemic.
On the 22nd February the government set out its roadmap to recovery, the end of lockdown and the easing of restrictions that the country has been under for the past year. We are delighted that we can once again play our part in supporting parents with their childcare needs as the country gets back to work.
On 23rd February the guidance was updated allowing Camp Beaumont to reopen and offer a vital childcare option for many busy parents and families as we exit the pandemic.
You can find the latest guidance by clicking this link: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/guidance-for-parents-and-carers-of-children-attending-out-of-school-settings-during-the-coronavirus-covid-19-outbreak/guidance-for-parents-and-carers-of-children-attending-out-of-school-settings-during-the-coronavirus-covid-19-outbreak
It is highly unlikely however if we are unable to operate camp for any reason, we will help you move your booking to another holiday, offer you a credit note, or give you a full refund.
We are an OFSTED registered childcare provider so following current guidance it recommends us to operate in consistent Group Bubbles of no more than 15 children.
Our biggest bubble group based on our current safety plan is 15. We will however maintain our ratios of 1:8 (3 to 7yrs) and 1:12 (8yrs +). So if we had a Group Bubble of 15 in our Magic Group (5 to7yrs) we would have two members of our team with this Group Bubble. These Group Bubbles will not come into contact with other bubbles throughout the camp day and will keep a consistent Camp Team leading the activities.
We will be accepting children where the childcare requirement is less than a week. We recognise the significance of our responsibility to keep everyone safe and of the childcare requirements throughout the school holidays which will go further than just weekly booking requirements.
Current government guidance says that, these Group Bubbles should remain consistent and that is what we intend to do. We have a responsibility to create a COVID secure environment, which we will do through all the measures we have set out, and we expect that our parents/guardians to also act responsibly. It is vital parents/guardians do not allow their child(ren) to attend if they are showing symptoms or are required to meet isolation or testing protocols after coming into contact with someone who has COVID-19.
We will record every child who has been within a Group Bubble on a weekly basis and try to minimise daily changes as much as possible so that each child only comes into contact with a maximum of 15 other children within their Group Bubble. If we are contacted by a parent/guardian or NHS Test and Trace to
Under current government guidance, we are required to keep children in small consistent bubbles of no more than 15 children to minimise the mixing of our children and staff and help prevent the spread of COVID-19 throughout the pandemic.
The idea is that if someone within a group bubble displayed any symptoms, only that particular group bubble that would need to close and not the whole camp.
If a group bubble was to close, those within it would need to follow the latest government self-isolation and/or testing guidance.
If someone on camp starts to display symptoms of COVID-19, then that child will be required to isolate until they are collected.Their parent/guardian will be notified immediately and required to come and collect their child(ren) as soon as reasonably possible.
The rest of the Group Bubble will be able to continue as normal unless there is multiple children or team members displaying symptoms at which point a decision will be made to isolate the entire Group Bubble to safeguard the rest of camp.
The individual(s) presenting symptoms of covid-19 are required to get a test and inform the Camp Manager as soon as reasonably possible of the result.
Positive Test - If the result comes back positive then the remainder of the Group Bubble must isolate and their parents/guardians will be required to collect as soon as reasonably possible. Then follow the latest government isolation/testing protocols.
Negative Test – If the result comes back negative then the child will be admitted back to camp and the Group Bubble can continue as normal.
The area in which anyone isolates will be cleaned and disinfected thoroughly after each use. Camp Beaumont has engaged the services of a market leading touch-less disinfection and decontamination company who will be on standby to attend site and disinfect areas as required.
You will be notified immediately and required to come and collect your child from Camp as soon as reasonably possible. Whilst waiting all children in the Group Bubble will be subject to our ‘Displayed Symptoms Procedure’ and isolation protocols. Your child and household will then be required to adhere to government self-isolation protocols. If your child ormember of your household starts to display symptoms then they will be eligible for a test.
We will welcome your child back to camp once self-isolation and/or testing protocols have been met and it is safe for them to return. You will be entitled to a credit note or you can reschedule the days missed free of charge to a later date.
Any child aged 3 to 5 years old is not required to be in bubbles of 15 as long as they are not mixing in groups with any children 6 years old or above. So our ‘Playtime’ age group (3 & 4 years old) and our 5 year old children do not need to be in group bubbles.
Any children aged 6 or above are still required to remain in small consistent groups of no more than 15 children. This will include any 5 year olds who, for logistical purposes, will need to be in a group with 6 year olds.
When you arrive, follow the signs to the ‘sign in’ area. There you will find your child’s age group table with a friendly Head Group Leader to register your child. You will be required to hand in the Camper Information form if you haven’t already and sign the register. Your child will then be introduced to their group leaders and encouraged to join in with their group in some small warm up activities whilst the rest of the group arrives.
Yes, all the children who attend will have key workers in the form of our brilliant Head Group Leaders and Group Leaders. For our younger guests from 3 to 5 years old, they will be assigned one of our team members who will check in to ensure they are have a great time whilst with us. You will be introduced to your child’s key worker on their first day at camp.
If your child requires extra support, the best thing to do would be to get in contact with one of our team members on 01603 851000. You will have the opportunity to give information about your child’s needs and the support required and we will endeavour to come up with a plan to enable your child to have the best time possible at Camp Beaumont. We make these plans with parents and carers on an individual case basis and are happy to work with you on a plan which works for your child. If your child already has one-to-one support, we are happy for their one-to-one to attend camp with them to support them. All we will need is a copy of their DBS check and to see some identification! Throughout your child’s time at camp, we will ensure we communicate thoroughly about the parts of the plan which are/are not working and will make changes in collaboration with you to support your child.
We organise our child groupings by the week so they will be in the same group for the whole of their stay. If they come back for an additional week then there is a small chance their group may change depending on numbers of children attending. If you'd like your child to be grouped with a friend, please let the camp manager know.
No, we would strongly recommend that your child does not bring any money with them. Camp Beaumont cannot be held responsible for any money that goes missing whilst on camp. All of our camps only accept cashless methods of payment for any extras and merchandise.
Positive reinforcement is the key for us at Camp Beaumont! We want all children who come to camp to enjoy their time with us and have the best holiday experience possible. If we see children behaving appropriately, we make sure to comment on and reward this behaviour. All staff have some behaviour management training which focuses on outlining rules and discussing why they are important, then managing children’s behaviour. Of course, we understand that in a new and exciting environment, children may need reminding of behaviour expectations – and to that end, each group will agree to a camp contract outlining the rules of our sites. These rules are designed in collaboration with campers to ensure they keep themselves and others safe and enable activities to be as enjoyable as possible! If a child is consistently breaking the rules and disrupting others, they will be taken aside and spoken to by a member of staff. A discussion will be had about why the rules are in place and why it is important to behave appropriately, then will be sent back to the group to enjoy the activity! In the case that a child is consistently not following the rules, this will be communicated to parents and carers. If a child’s behaviour puts them or someone else at risk, this becomes more serious. An Incident Report Form will be completed and details of what has happened communicated to parents. If a child’s behaviour at camp consistently puts themselves, others or staff members at risk or causes significant disruption to a group, parents or carers will be contacted and a warning given to that child. If this then continues, we reserve the right to prohibit a child from attending camp as a result of this.
UPDATE: To comply with current guidance, children aged 6+ will be bubbled in groups of up to 15 children. We group children according to age in our four main age groups: Playtime (3 & 4 years old); Magic (5 to 7 years old); Active (8 to 11 years old); and Teens (12 to 16 years old). These groups may be split down further depending on the number of children into age groups (e.g. Magic could be split into 5s, 6s and 7s age groups). We have a maximum of 24 children per group and our staff to child ratios are as follows: Playtime & Magic – 1:8 Active & Teens – 1:12
As we do not own the venues you will not be able to visit outside of school holiday periods during which we are open. If we are open, you are welcome to come for a look around - but this is by appointment only. You will need to contact the camp you wish to visit and make an appointment with a member of the management team - please get in touch with us via our contact us page and we'll help you do this.
If our camp staff find any named items, we will try our best to return these to children during the day. If your child has lost something which has not been returned to them, all lost property will be displayed at sign in and sign out every day for the duration of camp. You are welcome to come and have a look through the misplaced items, even if your child’s time at camp has finished. Finding belongings and returning them to children is made much simpler by items being named! At the end of camp, any leftover items will be donated to charity.

It is available at £15 per week/£3 per day booked and covers you in the case of cancellation if your child is unwell and unable to attend. For full details of this insurance, see refer to our booking conditions. If you decide to take out your own travel insurance, we recommend that you check that the policy covers adventure holidays – as many policies don't include these types of activities.
