Girl events

Girl wearing a helmet and holding a ropeFoxlease organises residential events in Princess Mary House for girls who may have Leaders with no holiday licence. It’s a great opportunity for the girls to make new friends, as well as Leaders!

We run a programme of events for girls each year or alternatively you can arrange your own adventure for your unit. For more information or to discuss your requirements, please contact the Foxlease office.

Multi Section Events

Foxlease 90th Birthday


Join in the birthday fun and games for our big celebration - Foxlease is 90!

All the fun of the Fair and more. Rides and games for all ages in your own private fairground located on the Foxlease estate. You will also be able to step back in time and visit our beautiful Georgian mansion, with a house tour and historical timeline to fuel your imagination of what life would have been like - who knows you may even bump into Olave Baden Powell! For those who like the thrill of the rides have lunch on the go in the fairground or if you prefer a slower paced day then afternoon tea on the lawn may be more your thing.

We will also have additional workshops and taster sessions of activities available, which will be pre-bookable for a small additional fee.

Everyone who attends will receive an exclusive 90th Birthday Badge.
