CAMPS AND CONFERENCE CENTRES SOUTH AUSTRALIA
Are you planning a camp or a residential conference and looking for an appropriate venue?
Perhaps you are running a children's school holiday camp or educational camp, maybe you're even a teacher organising a school camp. Do you want a camp with lots of sports facilities, or an environmental focus? Maybe a campsite with lots of outdoor challenge equipment.
Or are you a conference co-ordinator, needing just the right conference facilities. Do you want something a bit different to the usual hotel or hall venue? Something a bit more relaxed and "back to nature" ? Or perhaps you're organising a work training weekend, and want a conference venue where your fellow workmates will be able to get really involved, and take part in team building activities.
Below are a wide variety of camps and conference centres, with basic information and contact details for each. This list is by no means exhaustive however, so check out other residential camps from the comfort of your home, on the internet.
