Details:

Stay for a week or two in a quality holiday cottage starting on either a Friday or a Saturday and spend part of your time on a multi-activity programme put together by us that everyone can enjoy together. You simply tell us how much activity you want to do, any preferences on days and activities and we work it all out for you.

All self-catering cottages are in the Coniston or Langdale areas and are provided through our friends, Wheelwrights Cottages. Our prices are for activity sessions and we have given a guideline of what to expect to pay for your cottage. We can help you book your cottage but the booking will be direct with Wheelwrights and the price is dependent on the size and time of year you want to book

The self-catering activity prices include either 4, 6 or 8 activity sessions (e.g. 2 x full days and 4 x ½ days) that can be taken over your entire stay with a maximum of 2 activities within 1 day.

We feel our self-catering activity holiday is perfect for families and understand that there may be some in your group who do not wish to take part in any activities. Of course, if they wish to join just one session, this is fine and would be charged at our usual activity session rates.

If you already have your accommodation or wish to book this with another company, you can still take advantage of these great prices - just let us know when you'd like to come and we'll book you in.

Jo brought her 2 sons on a self-catering break last year - she said
Thank you very much to everyone involved with giving Edward, Alex and myself such a lovely holiday at the end of August. Johan, Sarah and … oh dear, I can’t remember the name of he girl who took us kayaking, but her also – were all absolutely marvellous.

You can choose any activities from our standard range:

Walking Canoeing
Climbing Abseiling
Gorge Walk Biking
Raft building Kayaking
Archery Sailing*
*Sailing and premium days are available with a surcharge of £15 per person.

For more information about these activities please click on each activity. Each activity takes at least half a day (1 session).

Example Programme - 6 sessions

Sunday
Relax, explore and get into that feeling of being away from it all.

Monday
Get the ball rolling gradually with an afternoon shooting arrows on the Archery field.

Tuesday
Climbing Adventure Day - spend a day on the Pike O'Blisco doing climbing, scrambles and maybe pop to the top to catch the views. The crags are only 30 mins walk from the car but they offer lots of variety so the day can be tailored to your needs.

Wednesday
Trail-cycling in the forest or on easy bridle paths - again a variety of difficulty is available.

Thursday
Day off to chill, shop, go for a scenic drive, the choices are endless

Friday
Half day canoe journey on Coniston Water. Visit Peel Island (Wild cat island from Swallows and Amazons), encounter wildlife among the quiet bays and maybe some canoe-sailing. Then finish the week off with an exciting Gorge Walk, getting wet through, having lots of fun and feeling thoroughly refreshed!.

There are no restrictions on the combination of full days and half days, and any one activity can be repeated for up to the equivalent of 4 sessions.
