Birthday Party FAQs
What's your maximum numbers for birthday parties?
We can cater for parties from 15 to 30 children. Children over 5 years old can attend without their parents, as long as the organiser has additional help in case of an emergency, and has all the parents’ contact information.
Do you supply food?
Yes we supply food - this can be a packed lunch or a wild treat around the campfire. We use seasonal options to suit all adventurers.
Can you cater for dietary requirements and allergies?
We do cater for dietary requests and allergies, and request all the food information in advance and confirmed 1 week prior to the party.
Do you offer invitations and decorations?
A special invitation can be sent to your guests via Whatsapp or email. This contains all the party information and takes the pressure of you! We always decorate our camp with beautiful handmade bunting, little touches around the fire circle, and have a special birthday message for the party host. You can bring your own decorations, but we ask for them to be as eco-friendly as possible please! All belongings are to be taken away at the end of your party. We don't allow balloons or glitter.
What do we do if the weather is bad?
Parties will always go ahead no matter what the weather! Our tarp canopies keep us dry around the campfire when we’re eating. For very adverse conditions, we’ll assess on the morning and be in contact with you as soon as possible.
Where is the meeting point at Plessey Woods Country Park?
From the car park you head to the Visitor’s Centre, then take a left on the public footpath. The entrance to our camp is clearly signposted. Outside camp is our meeting point until everyone arrives.
Do parents pay for car parking?
Car parking charges are enforced by Northumberland County Council at Plessey Woods. Up to two hours, the charge is £1.60. Please be advised, car park wardens do monitor this daily.
What do we need to bring with us?
Waterproofs to keep you dry and water bottle to stay hydrated.
Do you offer bespoke birthday parties?
We love unique, bespoke parties! Themes such as Robin Hood, Forest Fairies or even (children's favourite) a Julia Donaldson book can be tailored at your request. Please get in touch for more information.
Do we pay a deposit?
A non-refundable deposit of £20, which will be deducted off your final bill.
