Unforgettable Forest School Birthday Parties in Devon

Make your child’s special day magical with campfire toasting, den-building, nature crafts and woodland games, all set in our private woodland playground and secret forest camp near Exeter.

The Natural Way to Party

Why settle for ordinary? Our forest school birthday parties are full of wonder, playful learning and hands-on adventure. Hidden away in the woods of Grammarcombe Woods on the Ashcombe Estate, each party is uniquely wild, creative and utterly memorable.

What’s Included in Your Forest Party

Each birthday party begins with a short walk through the woods to our private forest party space, a magical setting for a day of adventure, imagination and muddy fun.

Adult Supervision Info

We provide two experienced forest school leaders to run the party. We ask that two adults remain with the birthday children throughout the party, usually their parents or carers.

To maintain a safe and enjoyable environment for everyone, one parent or carer per child under 7, or for children with additional needs, may also attend where their support is needed. Parents or carers of very young siblings may also stay if their supervision is required.

Please let us know in advance if additional adult supervision is needed so we can plan accordingly.

Add Scrummy Food

We’ll provide drinks for the children – squash or hot chocolate (weather dependant), tea & coffee for adults and of course marshmallows for toasting. If you book a party with food, we supply & cook campfire food, consisting of delicious hot dogs for each child (meat or vegetarian) plus snacks. The two adult helpers who stay will also be fed by our hearty campfire fayre. Don’t forget the cake! We can also provide a birthday cake with candles (optional extra). If you would like to bring your own food you are welcome to bring a cold picnic/finger food but please let us know beforehand and take away any leftovers/rubbish with you.
