Dorothy Hughes Pack Holiday Centre
We have two Patrol Cabins for smaller group stays, situated on the edge of Woodlands. They’re great for groups that want a mix of camping and basic bunk accommodation.
Each Patrol Cabins sleeps eight people across two rooms, for a total of 16 beds across both cabins. Each cabin can be booked separately, but are just next door to each other for groups who’d like to use both.
The cabins are basic in style, with bunk beds, electric lighting, power sockets and a wall heater. Beds are provided mattress-only, so make sure you bring a sleeping bag and pillow.
There’s a small store/kitchen hut in between the cabins, which includes a fridge, freezer and two gas burners. This is only a small space, so isn’t suitable for dining. The kitchen hut is shared by both cabins.
Woodlands toilet/shower block is just 50m away, which also has washing up sinks and drinking water taps.
