Outdoor Kitchen & Secondary Campfire Circle

🔥 The Campfire Kitchen – Cook, Eat & Make Memories

Ready to take your camp cooking to the next level? Queen Charlotte’s Wood has its very own outdoor kitchen and campfire circle, located close to Badger’s Rake and The Pines, where groups can gather, cook up a feast and enjoy food the way it was meant to be enjoyed — outdoors!

Renovated in 2022, this special campfire area was created in memory of our late campsite manager, April Nicholas, and provides a fantastic space for groups to come together.

With seating for at least 24 people around the campfire, there’s plenty of room to gather around, share stories and enjoy a meal under the stars.

N.B the Campfire Circle must be booked alongside either Camping, The Hideaway, The Bothy, Laavu, Evening Visitor or Day Visitor.

Ready to book? Simply select the campfire facility as part of your booking. Once your booking and associated products have been submitted, our Bookings Team will review and confirm your booking.

🍕 More Than Just Pizza!

The outdoor kitchen includes:

  • 🔥 A traditional wood-fired pizza oven
  • 🍖 Two altar-style barbecues
  • 🍴 Four stainless-steel preparation surfaces

So why not leave the mess tent and gas stoves behind and embrace proper outdoor cooking?

And don’t stop at pizza! The wood-fired oven is perfect for getting creative with your camp menu. Why not try your hand at:

  • Freshly baked bread 🥖
  • Slow-cooked meat 🍖
  • Roasted fish 🐟
  • Homemade pizzas 🍕
  • Or even a full roast dinner! 🍗

Whether you’re cooking for a small group or bringing everyone together for a big campfire feast, this is a place to cook, eat, relax and make memories together.

🌲 Gather Around the Fire

There’s something special about preparing food outdoors, sitting around a roaring fire and enjoying a meal with your group. Bring your ingredients, bring your appetite and let the adventure begin!

Fire up the oven, gather around the campfire and create your own Queen Charlotte’s Wood feast.

🔥 Important: Pizza Oven & Campfire Kitchen

Please note that the pizza oven requires specific types of wood to operate safely and effectively. You must only use hardwood with a moisture content of less than 20%.

Before using the oven, please ensure you read and follow the operating manual and instructions provided.

We also ask that you leave the outdoor kitchen and campfire circle clean, tidy and immaculate after use, ready for the next group to enjoy.

Help us keep this fantastic facility in great condition for everyone.
