Whithaugh Park (pronounced Whittoff) is an estate of about 100 acres just outside Newcastleton, in Roxburghshire, Scotland (about 25 miles from Carlisle).

We have sole use of the grounds where there is a lake, climbing tower, high ropes course, indoor swimming pool, sports hall, BMX track, football & volleyball pitches, all weather pitch and large wooded areas!
 

Each day at Whithaugh there is an action packed programme, where you can choose from the following activities:

High Ropes course, Zip Wire, abseiling, canoeing, kayaking, fencing, pony trekking, rafting, tennis, BMX, assault course, trampolining, archery, football, basketball, volleyball, dodgeball, unihoc, swimming, aerobics, rounders, jogging and the infamous Spaceball Challenger ride for people with a strong stomach!

If you want a break from sport, there is badge-making, crafts and friendship bands.

We also have some great team games and special events each day, such as: The Whithaugh Challenge, the Great Water Chase, Whithaugh Football Tournament, Unihoc Tournamanent and the Dodgeball Tournament!

The Theme for Whithaugh this year is yet to be announced - watch this space!!

On the other nights we have the Whithaugh Indoor Challenge, a 'Chill Out' Sports Night and our very own Whithaugh Concert Night, where you get the chance to perform and be the star!

Everyone sleeps in log cabins, which accommodate from 9 to 11 persons, including leaders. There are four dining halls and also recreational cabins for table tennis, table football, pool and snooker.

Whithaugh Park, near Newcastleton in the Borders, is run by Rock UK, a Christian organisation with different centres across the UK. Yet we can say with a certain amount of insider nudge-nudge info that Whithaugh has no other week like ours, and usually need another week just to recover!!

Groups arrive each year from across the country, but predominently from the North East. Crusaders/Urban Saints week each August continues to grow in numbers year after year, if you haven't been already then what's been keeping you?!

Whithaugh Crusaders is a non-denominational Christian camp for 11-16yr olds. We have a lively, genuine, yet prayerful worship, and Bible-based teaching in group quiet-times, with leaders from every church denomination throughout the UK. Affiliated with Crusaders/Urban Saints, we share our statement of faith with many, many other Christian organisations.
