My 5yr old daughter attended the Barnet camp. This is our go-to holiday camp as the early and late sessions work well with my work schedule. The staff are helpful with a warm disposition in welcoming and settling the children in, especially the early years manager, Osarume. My daughter particularly loves the swimming sessions and bouncy castle available during summer, and other activities including face painting. They also take childcare account payments unlike some other camps. My only slight criticism is they don't offer snacks or a hot meal especially for young kids staying long hours but we still love being there. I have recommended this camp to so many other parents in my daughters school!!!

Excellent Summer Camp!
Both of my children absolutely love Letchworth Barracudas! They have so many fun activities and games and always come home happy, having had the best day.
It really is the best holiday camp in the area. All of the leaders are fun and friendly, especially Nicky who always goes above and beyond!

My child had a great day at the Letchworth camp. They said they loved going in the swimming pool and that their group leader was really fun.

The camp based at St Christopher’s in Letchworth has been amazing for my two girls. A special mention must go to Nicky who heads up the camp who goes above and beyond to accommodate for the children. My youngest daughter can be very reluctant to go to any clubs but Nicky always ensures that she is given the support she needs at drop offs to make her transition as smooth as it can be, which is such a massive help. In general the camp is so well organised and the girls have been able to try such a great selection of activities. Would definitely recommend this as a great base for summer camp. Thank you.

My 4yr old has had a great time at Barracudas in Letchworth. Lots of great activities - my son particularly enjoyed aqua slide and archery. Staff seem friendly and welcoming. It’s seems like a professional, well organised and safe environment too

My son loved going to Barracudas so was really pleased to book their football camp. It has been hugely disappointing. Despite reassurances that measures would be taken to keep in mind heat they played outside most of day in 30+ degree heat. Son experienced one point where much older boys were being unkind to him. When asked where the coaches were he told us they were not nearby and sitting scrolling on their phones. When he went to refill his water bottle one day he was told there want time and to go back to the match. Overall, not something I’d recommend for younger kids (7-8).

My son absolutely loves Barcuddas in Hinchingbrooke. So much so he doesn’t want to come home. Yes it’s expensive but it’s worth absolutely every penny. Unlike a lot of childcare camps this camp opens at 8:30 and finishes at 5:30 with the provision of later childcare if needed. Great camp highly recommend

Another amazing season at Letchworth Barracudas! My daughter comes back every year and has a brilliant time with her school friends who now also attend as a result of her rave reviews in the playground! Shout out to her group leaders Matt, Hollie and Katelin who really helped the group in their sessions and to all of the blue shirt team especially Nicky, Ty and Hannah for all of their hard work - we will definitely be back next year!

Huntingdon barracudas have looked after my children for 5 summers now, it is lovely to see such a consistent team who always welcome them personably. My girls are always exhausted but beaming when they leave camp!

Watford barracudas is excellent. This is the 6th or 7th period there for ours.
Our kids love going to the extent that any trip abroad or mention of holiday away is met with moans and frowning faces as they’d rather be at Barracudas!
Lots of activities, friendly staff, and very capable leadership staff on-site, most of which are all teachers so highly trained in how to manage kids of varied ages or needs.

Happy to say again I’m pleased with the Watford team. Amazing and friendly staff who keep our children busy all day.

Letchworth camp. Special shout out to Joel, Nathan, Tom and (especially) Nicky.
Joel, Tom and Nathan looked after my children in their classes, girls had a BLAST, wanted to stay for further weeks instead of going on holiday (ha) and this melted anyway any “working Mum guilt” I had. This is fourth year with this camp and the girls always look forward to it. Thanks so much. It’s worth every single penny for the action packed fun. I’m in no doubt I couldn’t replicate it without spending a significant higher amount myself! The best camp around without a doubt.
And…. A big and special “thank you” to Nicky who is the glue who holds all Lordship participants together. She goes above and beyond to make sure the kids feel connected, supported and secure, all whilst having a blast. I don’t think we would have completed our fourth (or second, third) year if Nicky wasn’t there.
