Have you had a hard and stressful year? Then look no further, this activity week will destress you and prepare you for the year ahead,

Forget your Package Holiday and join us on our Country Log cabin Activity Craft Week, and you dont have to take our word for it,
just read our clients feedbacks at the bottom of the page,

We have clients who return year after year because they enjoy themselves so much on this course, this speaks for itself,  


 Our 7 Day Craft Activity Course is ran in an informal way, No timetables, Nothing is Compulsory, No strict Schedules, this is the main core of this course, When you join this course you are able to forget for 1 week the pressures of work and home life, it is amazing what that can do for a person, It really lifts their life up in a way that words cannot explain,

The location has a lot to do with this as well as the informality of the group and course, You will be among friends (or as one past client has said family) you haven't met yet,  


You will be spending the week in a Country Norwegian Cabin, set within a private Country Estate of over 7,000 acres of land and woodland with rivers and ponds Most of which are stocked with fish, plenty of wildlife to see and photograph, including Peregrine Falcons, Short Eared Owls, Golden Plover, Hen Harriers, and many more rare species, the Cabin actually has a turfed roof to help with insulation and this is managed and cut every year,

Remote and away from all the hustle and bustle of every day life, but with all facilities to hand,

Pictures for illustration purposes only as the location has changed for 2012 but the activities stay the same 


These are only some of the activities you will be covering during your stay with us, other activities are included but will be put into practice when you are there

You may leave us exhausted but with an experience you will never forget, The activities above will be split up to allow plenty of free time to explore the countryside at your leisure,  or simply take a walk, get in a spot of fishing ( or fresh water Brown trout), as usual this will all take place in as humerous and light hearted and relaxed way that we can,

Also the evenings are for relaxing, usually the group relax round the log fire and have a good time, this is not compulsory either but most people drop in and out throughout the evening, a great way to socialise and forget the humdrum way of life that we have,
