Longcraig Scout Centre

Booking is now open for the 2025 Season

The 2025 season will run from May to September.  To check availability and make your booking click the Book Now button above.

Once you have made your booking we will check that we will check that we have appropriate space and available volunteer staff to meet your requirements. Sometimes although space may seem available, we are not able to allocated it to your booking. If this is the case we will let you know as soon as possible. This process can take time, particularly for bookings made early in the season, so you may not receive any further email from us until closer to your booking date.

Please note bookings on Friday, Saturday and Sunday pm are most likely to be supported by our staff. 
Exact water activities provided will depend on staff and conditions on the day 

If you have a Scout Water Activity permit, you really should ensure you regularly test your skills in a practical way. One way to do that is to staff at Longcraig
Interested - see our recruitment page for details. 

Paddlesport Safety & Rescue Course

We are OPEN for BOOKINGS for Season 2025

This year we are continuing to operate some minor tweaks to our offerings which we hope you will find more straight forward and improve your booking experience. 

Our normal activity session remains unchanged. As last year, on any particular evening we will offer activities that match the available staff. Participants should come prepared to Kayak, Raft or Sail. To reflect this change and simplify the booking process you will no longer be able to specify your activity preference on the booking form. We aim to accommodate  12 sailing and 12 paddle sport places per session, the exact mix depending on conditions and available staff. 

Our Activity Base which gives groups the opportunity to use the centre as a base for their own group activities will remain a flat fee for  use of the centres land facilities.

To streamline our admin procedures and ensure that any booking queries get dealt with promptly, we will only be monitoring email sent to bookings@longcraig.com. As a result, if you reply to an email from our booking system or use one of our other email addresses,  your email is unlikely to be read and you will not get a reply.

If you have any enquiries please look at our websites www.longcraig.info for general information about the centre and https://cust.longcraig.info for information relating specifically to bookings.
