Fantastic experience with Kings Camps.

My kids had an absolute blast at their holiday camp. The camp is well organised and structured and the kids came come very tired at the end of the day (which is a great sign of a great time).

Lucy, Cardiff

A great sports camp which was throughly enjoyed by my daughter

The variety of sports and activities is great and the Red Tops are upbeat and enthusiastic. It suits our childcare needs perfectly too so we’re all already counting down to the next camp!

Alexandra, Cardiff

Best week of his life

Our son had such an incredible time - the variety of activities kept him super busy and he thought all the camp staff were really lovely. In his own words 'best week of his life'.

Aman, Birmingham

My daughter Arya has loved Kings Camps since she started at the holiday camps at Blue Coat School. The coaches are absolutely amazing and really look after the children and ensure they have a fantastic time. She loves the variety of different games she has the opportunity to participate in and of course the swimming. she looks forward to going every time and always comes home with a smile on her face. I cannot recommend this Camp enough!

Louise, York

My boys loved their Kings Camps adventures over the Easter

I highly recommend Kings Camps - my boys come home full of stories of what they have done during the day and they are shattered but very happy. They love the red tops and I feel relaxed knowing my boys are left in safe hands.

My 9 year old son has been attending Kings Camps since last summer and he absolutely loves going. He had so much fun, made friends and learn to swim better. He can't wait for summer camp. Thank you from a very happy mum.

Highly recommend Kings Camps - phenomenal week!!

My son LOVED his week at Chester - the variety of activities was fantastic and gave children the opportunity to try new sports! Thank you.

Emma, Northampton

Excellent active club, friendly team

Staff and the manager Bronny all very friendly and welcoming. Boosted my son’s morale when he got a certificate for trying hard in swimming, loved how active it is and playing with new friends.

Louise, Fareham

Feedback from my children - it's a fun and active camp!! I enjoyed finding new games I like such as badminton! I enjoyed playing with other groups! Feedback from parent - great organisation and staff friendly, energetic and welcoming! My children love Kings Camp and have recommended to their friends!!

Michelle, Birkenhead

Engaging, Friendly, Professional & Encouraging Sports Camp

The setup on arrival was very professional, and the staff were super friendful, helpful and you felt secure leaving your child in their care. My daughter is not the most sporty but she sure enjoyed elements of each day, and the instructors made sure each child felt involved and were very engaging and encouraging. At the end of it my daughter said she would love to go back in the summer. Overall I was extremely impressed and would happily recommend Kings Camps.

James, Monmouth

Consistently a great experience

This was the second Kings Camp that our 8 year old has attended. He was so keen to come back after last summer that when the opportunity came up for an Easter holiday session we jumped at the chance. He’s had another great week of activity supported by excellent staff at an outstanding location. We can’t ask for much more!
