Melton

Melton Scout Campsite is located in East Yorkshire 1km north from the village of Melton. The site is situated within mature woodland covering an area of approximately 7 acres. Both camping and indoor accommodation are available along with a range of outdoor activities.

Outdoor Camping

The site has 12 identified camping pitches of differing size which can be used for a whole group or a single patrol. The area provides an excellent opportunity for ‘back to basics’ camping with ample opportunities to experience cooking on open fires, bivouacs, pioneering and many other outdoor activities. The woodland rises steadily up the length of the site with spectacular views across the river Humber from the higher pitches.
