Adventure Weekend - Unleash Your Potential

Welcome to our newest retreat, filled with fun, laughter, adventure and confidence.

Trying new things, pushing our comfort zone and having fun is for everyone! 

We definitely enjoy being in our PJ’s in front of the TV at the weekend, but now and then it’s great to feel free, challenge ourselves and have fun. Also, do something we get little chance to do as an adult, which is play!

 Why not join us on the 2nd April for a fun-packed adventure weekend? Led by qualified instructors (not us), try your hand at abseiling, river walking, canoeing, climbing wall, zip lines, swimming in the lake, plus much more.

The location is the Lake District (Windermere), the residence is a bungalow with bunks, a large living room and kitchen, and lots of bathrooms. This is no frills, but lots of fun! 

Everything is included in the price: accommodation, activities and food. Secure your place today.

This will help give you an idea of what a 2-night Activity course at Ghyll Head might look like. All activities are weather-dependent- it is the Lake District, after all! 

Friday: Arrive 4  pm. Welcome, settle in and meet the Ghyll Head team. Discuss any curriculum links you would like us to weave into your activity sessions (including those all-essential life skills). Evening meal - Time to freshen up before gathering for your home-prepared 2-course evening meal. Evening Activity Instructor-led team-building activity until 9 pm. For example, evening walk or night-line challenge. 

Saturday Full Activity Day. After breakfast, we will meet to gather any relevant information from the night before. We will review the weather conditions and then make a plan for your day. 

Example activities include • Ghyll scrambling • Canoeing on England's longest Lake Windermere • Climbing wall, zip wire & ropes course • Scenic walk to a Lakeland summit • Evening tipi campfire • Meditation • Music • Relax. 

Sunday Full Activity Day: You'll know the ropes by now, so you'll be quick off the mark and ready for another full day of adventure (example activities as above). Your instructor now knows exactly what you're all capable of and will bring a new level of progression and development to your day. Departure: 4 pm
