★★★★★ My son had the best time on daycamps

My son had the best time on daycamps! He’s 5 and he got to do SUP, zip wire, campfire, den building, water fights and so many adventures at Fairthorne Manor daycamps! He was excited to go every day and he can’t wait to join in during the next school holidays :-)

★★★★★ Summer fun with friends at Daycamps

My son did multi-activity camp with his friends this summer and they all had a great time. He loved the jumping pillow and climbing activities. He enjoyed the campfire and songs from this and also choosing at the Tuck Shop each day! We added on the sleepover option on the Thursday which was his first time camping with friends and was very exciting. He said the food was yummy which was good to hear! Would definitely send him again to Daycamps for more fun!

★★★★★ YMCA Daycamps

My two boys attended daycamps this summer, they had a fab time. My eldest (12) did survival Plus and loved all the activities, axe throwing and cooking on the fire was the highlight. My youngest 8 loved Activity club with his favourite activity being Den building and fire lighting. Big Day was brilliant and the boys enjoyed tucking into the dinners. They also both did the sleepover which they loved and we had a bonus of a child free night. Thank you to the team!
