The Lee Valley doesn’t always spring to mind as a destination when planning the next break away. However when you see the fantastic locations, brilliant activities and great days out available it will be a holiday destination that you’ll fall in love with.
With London just 40 minutes away you can make your own adventures with a stay in the Lee Valley. After exploring the city step into nature, away from the hustle and bustle in our idyllic campsites.
From adrenalin fuelled activities to tranquil picturesque settings coupled with cutting-edge city adventures the Lee Valley can offer it all – truly something for everyone to enjoy.
The sound of bird song as your morning wake up call, flip flops on the dewy grass, the sense of calm as you have a bite to eat - revel in the glorious outdoors and wonderful nature.
Whether you like to explore by bike, on foot or even canoe the Lee Valley has a way for you to get out there and to embark on the day’s adventure.
The smell of summer camping trips - burning logs in a fire pit, marshmallows charring and BBQs. The perfect evening entertainment!
