Barracudas Activity Day Camps Reviews 

This was our first time using Barracudas, we used Hemel Hempstead over October half term. I was a bit anxious on the first day, as this was the first time we’ve used a holiday camp for our little girl (aged 4) who has just started school. All the information beforehand was v helpful & drop off was great, the team were warm and welcoming. Our daughter loved it. The activities and facilities were brilliant, she even went swimming with the group leader (she normally hates getting into the water!). She talks about ‘camp’ and asks if we can go again! So we’ll definitely be using in the future. As full time working parents, we’re lucky to have found Barracudas.

My 5 year old boys loved their week at Harlow Barracudas. The staff were great with them, especially when they were scared and shy on the first day.
There were really good age appropriate activities to keep them entertained all day.

My son had an overall great time at this holiday camp in the summer and recent half term. I think the range of activities were greater in the Summer than in the half term. My son never had a chance to do motor sports in the summer despite him attending for 8 days in total and me specifically asking the staff for him to be chosen one day (I understand numbers are limited but they should still allow every child who is interested to have a go). They publish that you can pick up between 4:30 and 5:30pm but it seems no activities are planned for this hour so when you pick up at 5pm, for example, your child has been sat down in a room holding their backpack and coat for half an hour!

Nothing but great things to say! Great set-up, fun activities, good size groups and wonderful staff.

Special thanks to the absolutely fantastic staff at Barracudas Maidenhead who really made my son's summer wonderful, especially Emma, Hannah and Tilly who really went above and beyond - legends!

We have used the High Wycombe camp for 9 years now and have never had any issues or concerns. Having a child with AuDHD it’s always worrying how they will get on but the staff are amazing (many are teachers)
Children absolutely love it & look forward to coming . Thank you

I signed up my 4 year old daughter who has ADHD, this summer for the 1st time, I was quite anxious it might not work for her. But I must say it was amazing : The staff was very helpful, fun and friendly. My daughter loved the activities especially swimming and dancing / karaoke, and her behaviour really improved (her social skills were not the greatest when she started). I will definitely sign her up again !

My two boys (5 & 7) loved Ripely Barracudas so much. A really well put together camp with outstanding staff and loads of great activities for them to chose.

The staff at the Chigwell camp were amazing. My kids (ages 6 and 7) loved Ella, Libby and Telulah so I knew they were well cared for. They get 2 choices for every session which is fantastic and the QR code system for picking up our children feels safe and secure. There is also a 1 hour window to drop off and pick up your child so it is not a rush or worry if you are running late.

Superb. Son loved it would highly recommend it!

My daughter always enjoys her time at Barracudas Chigwell. Great team and great activities.
Many thanks

I cannot rate this club enough and my son absolutely loves it. The staff are all so friendly and the amount of activities that they have to offer, keeps him entertained all day. Being working parents, the early drop offs and late pick up option is great for us.

My 7-year-old daughter had a fantastic time at Barracudas Summer Camp. Every day she came home excited to tell me about the fun activities, the friends she made, and all the new things she got to try.

As a single parent, flexibility is really important to me, and Barracudas made things so much easier with their clear communication and well-organised structure. I always felt reassured knowing my daughter was in safe hands.

What impressed me most was how caring and attentive the staff were. At one point my daughter had a situation where she was being bullied, and the team handled it so well - quickly, professionally, and with great care. They made sure my daughter felt safe and supported, and they kept me fully informed. That level of attention means the world to me as a parent.

I’m so grateful to the whole team for creating such a fun, safe, and nurturing environment. My daughter is already asking when she can go back, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Barracudas to other parents.

My daughter (7yrs) has attended the Bedford summer camp two years running, just for a few days to break up the holiday and play with other kids. She's also attended different holiday clubs nearby and says this is the best by far. There are lots of activities for them to choose from and something different everyday. As a parent, drop off and pick up are very quick due to their QR code system. I booked the flexible option and had to use switch days when my daughter was ill - customer service was good and had no problems.

Barracudas is a place of great fun, which is what kids need when on their holidays! The range of activities is excellent and the staff fantastic. My child has been going to a number of years and even at the age of now 13 has a superb time. I highly recommend it! Susan

Barracuda is simply the most love holiday club my son has ever been. He loves it with passion and I couldn’t be happier with the amazing staff. They’ve bond really nicely with him. Huge thanks to the Cobham team. Cartier loves you guys.

Highly recommend, very professional, very kind, and always excited to go back.

From the initial booking to the days my son spent at Barracuda Winchester I could not be happier.
My son has been to many holiday camps and this is by far the best.
Great organisation, staff, safety and security, customer service, website, sons experience.
Every day he was so happy to go and even happier when we picked him up.
"Mummy don't come any earlier than 5.30 as I don't want to miss anything" What more can I say.

Everything is fantastic… we like so much ♥️

Amazing experience
My daughter loved it

My kids are 5 years apart, but it has been great being able to send them both to Barracudas as they both absolutely love it.

They especially like the range of fun activities on offer, rhe fact thay for every slot they can choose an activity out of a choice of 2 and the fun and friendly instructors.

So easy to book as well with flexibility to change later on if you need to. Hours great with flexibility in as well!
