Camping Accommodation, right by the Sea!
1st Uphill Scout HQ is an ideal place to spend a weekend camping or run a sleepover event. Our HQ is less than 15 mins walk to the beach between Weston & Uphill and offers secure facilities for younger groups such as Brownies, Rainbows, Beavers & Cubs as well as outside camping for Scouts and older groups.
Our main hall is a good size which can comfortably sleep 20-25,
Our headquarters include disabled facilities, a leader’s shower room and plenty of room for separate sleeping areas for young people and leaders. There are male and female as well as a disabled toilet and a spare room should it be needed for additional privacy.
Security
The site is secure and items can be safely left in the hut as it is alarmed. It is also possible to make the hut secure from the inside at night. There is a 5 bar gate stopping any unauthorised vehicular access.
Kitchen Facilities
We have a large kitchen with double oven, microwave, freezer, fridge and most crockery/cutlery and cookware needed to run your camp.
Outside Cooking
We have a double brick-built BBQ which can be made full use of at any time and normally a good supply of wood.
Outdoor Facilities
The outside has a large car park able to accommodate 15-20 cars and the camping area will allow 3-4 patrol tents to be pitched or used as an enclosed outdoor activity area.

Weston Seafront is only 20-30 mins away by foot with attractions such as Pirate adventure land and the Pier. There’s The wild Place, a number of 9 hole golf courses in the area, Puxton Park, The Helicopter Museum, SS Great Britain, The Mendip Hills and lots of other things of interest in the surrounding area.
