Welcome to

Glenny Wood Scout Camp Site

Such great place to visit and stay

Glenny Wood Scout Camp Site is the traditional Scout Campsite with lots of room to camp, undertake activities, play games and have a fabulous time.

We look forward to welcoming you to Glenny Wood.

Glenny Wood Scout Camp Site is ideally situated to explore the local area. We are close to the City of Bristol, which has many attractions and activities available


Also within easy reach are the seaside towns of Portishead, Clevedon and

Weston Super Mare.


Mendips and Cheddar village is but a short journey. This area is famous for its Gorge, ideal for Walking, Climbing and Caving.


The ski slope at Churchill is also not far away

So Scout and Guide Groups when planning your next camp / residential, think of us as Glenny Wood is a great place for you to choose.


And don't forget we have a fabulous range of on site activities to challenge and help develop your skills and experiences.

Therefore we look forward to welcoming members of the Scout and Guide Association to visit us for an evening / day and to stay with us,  

either camping, using the lodge or both


We also welcome D of E Groups, Schools, along with other organisations with a similar ethos to that of The Scout Association


Sorry no individual or Family camping as we are not a commercial campsite.
