Woodland Wellbeing Escape
A calming selection of activities set within an ancient woodland
Woodland Wellbeing Escape (minimum 10 participants)
A typical day: Arrive from 9am. Depart by 4.15pm
Based in our 7-acre woodland, you will have exclusive use of all the facilities to enjoy a unique experience.
Met by one of our dedicated outdoor activity instructors, you will receive a full introduction to the day, whilst enjoying complimentary drink refreshments and snacks.
Each group will enjoy a range of feet-on-the-ground activities set amongst the splendour of our ancient woodland, surrounded by nature.
ARCHERY: Our archery range is in a tranquil setting. Under a parachute canopy which blends with the surrounding trees, and located next to a babbling brook. The session will cover an introduction, practice rounds, fun archery games and a scoring round.
ORIENTEERING: Explore the woodland on a network of paths whilst completing an orienteering course. The session starts with a quick lesson on map reading and then you can set out on your own to find the controls hidden in the woodland.
PUZZLED IN THE WOODS: You can complete up to 7 problem solving tasks set amongst the trees. Your instructor is there to guide you between tasks and offer life lines should you require any assistance. You will have a combination of light physical and cognitive tasks.
FIRE & BREAD MAKING: Based in the bushcraft den, nestled within the woodland environment this peaceful activity involves making your own campfire and freshly cooked bread. You will practice fire lighting skills using flint and steel, before making and cooking Bannock bread for you to savour around the fire.
SHELTER BUILDING: Imagine you were staying the night! Your group are required to build a shelter to keep themselves warm and dry. You will be given limited resources and then you can use your imagination and resources found naturally in the woodland to create your perfect shelter.
Everyone who attended enjoyed the day, they found the different sessions both physically and mentally challenging.
