Barracudas Activity Day Camps Reviews 1,820

Both my children attending the Huntingdon camp over Easter and they had a fantastic time.
The range of activities available was amazing. My daughters favourite was swimming and my son loved the go karts, dodgeball and football.
The staff were all really friendly and supportive.
Overall I was very impressed with everything and the children will certainly be returning.

The staff were generally average, but I do feel that more attention should have been given to safety, organisation, and the overall wellbeing of the children. The camp also felt oversubscribed. The rooms seemed quite small for the number of children attending, and my daughter found the environment very noisy and crowded, which made the experience uncomfortable for her.

I was particularly concerned about the swimming day. My daughter reported that the pool water had visible white particles in it, and children should not have been allowed to swim in those conditions. Following this, she developed a painful eye infection and is still on antibiotics, which made the whole experience even more upsetting.

I was also unhappy with the go-karting activity. On a warm, sunny day, the children were made to wear heavy outfits, and my daughter kept saying that she felt very hot and could not breathe properly. This did not feel safe, and it did not seem that there was enough attention given to how the children were coping.

Considering the cost of £60 per day, I was expecting a much better standard of care, organisation, and attention to health and safety.

Overall, this was a disappointing experience, and I would have expected a much better-run camp.

Fantastic team and an amazing camp! My 8 year old loved it and is begging to return! What more could I want really? Thanks to all those who looked after my boy 💙

My son attends Barracudas during half term, usually twice a week, and we’ve really appreciated the supportive and caring environment.
I especially want to mention Matt, who made a big difference on days when my son was not feeling good about himself. He took the time to listen and support him with patience and kindness, which meant a lot to us.
Thank you to the team for looking after him so well.

Fantastic camp highly recommend to anyone great friendly Caring staff fantastic activities with lots to choose from my son takes a while to feel comfortable around strangers this is the only camp he has wanted to go back too

We’ve had a really positive experience with Barracudas Chislehurst.

Well-organised, good communication, and the staff clearly know how to handle kids with energy and structure. The range of activities keeps things varied, so it doesn’t feel repetitive even across multiple days. Drop-off and pick-up are mostly smooth, which makes the day easier to manage.

Most importantly, the kids come back happy and tired.

Not the cheapest option, but you can see where the money goes. Would use again.

Barracuda’s is brilliant. It is well run with lots of different activities. The teachers are very caring and my children love going.

The team at Harpenden are spectacular - they are so kind, energetic, empathetic, supportive and provide both of my kids with brilliant, fun and action packed days. Can’t thank them enough and would give more than 5 stars if possible.

When you find a team and venue that works for busy working parents, it just lifts that weight off your shoulders. I know my kids are safe and happy - what more could I ask for.

My son went to a camp day in Mille school in Horsham on 9/4. He was sad not to have the opportunity to try the activities. For the Go Kart the instructor only choose five to try it and he was not chosen!! I am not sure I understand why, do we send our kids to watch other having fun. I mean a kid who is only 7 see some of his group do activity and he doesn’t get chance to join in - it just unacceptable!! He came home so sad and not happy at all.

My son went to Romford barracudas this Easter 2026 and the staff are so caring, I was really impressed how passionate they are. I felt so safe knowing he was looked after properly.

Barracuda Watford - highly recommended, my 8 yr boy loves it here

If you are looking for a holiday camp in Cambridge that actually delivers on its promises, Barracudas is it. We’ve tried a few local clubs over the years, but the Cambridge sites (we’ve used both St. Faith’s and Long Road) are consistently on another level.

Beautiful experience, my son enjoys waking up and attending the Watford Grammar School for Girls Activity camp!

My kids love Barracuda’s Watford. Everyday, there are loads of activities for them to choose to participate in and they love making new friends. The staff are amazing and I drop my kids off knowing they will be well looked after whilst they are having fun. Roll on the 6-week holidays!!!

What made my experience great at Watford Barracudas was, how friendly the staff were and all of the fun activities. I especially enjoyed swimming and dodgeball.

Watford staff are great! My son can not wait to go back every day! Lots of activities and very fun days! 🎉

Simply the best. My daughter absolutely loves it !

I sent my daughter to the easter camp. She is only just four, but has had the most wonderful three days. Her group leader gave me personalised feedback each afternoon at collection. My daughter found out she's not booked in for Thursday, and has asked that we change plans so can go!!! A huge thank you to the team!!

My little one, age 4, went to the October 25 camp in Horsham for a few days and loved it then was super excited to go for the entire week in Feb half term 26 at the same location.

He was happy and had a great time every day. He particularly loved the swimming, but it was clear they did loads of different activities each day. Staff were capable, switched on and good with the kids

He came home happy and tired every day. The days are long for a really little one like mine, but he loved it!

My 5 year old loved the Barracudas in Barnet - would recommend :)
