Cudham Shaws Outdoor Centre

Cudham Shaws Outdoor Centre is a Scout-run campsite and activity centre set across two sites in the Kent countryside near Cudham and Downe, close to Junction 4 of the M25.

It caters primarily to youth and uniformity groups, schools, and clubs, offering both day visits and overnight stays with pitches and cabin accommodation.

The centre provides a broad mix of self-led and instructor-led activities, including archery, air rifle shooting, soft archery, pub skittles, and an adventure play area with climbing frames and balance equipment.

Its programme is designed to build confidence, teamwork, and outdoor skills in a fun, inclusive setting. Third-party providers also use the site — bushcraft and outdoor events are among the experiences hosted on the lower site near Downe Road.
