Come and spend the afternoon with me and we will explore 8 of the most spectacular lakes in England. I've spent many years getting to know this beautiful place, inside and out, and I can't wait to share it all with you. Travelling around in a small minivan with lots of stops, you'll soon get a sense of the place. I'll take you to secret spots you would never find by yourself and tell you about the legends of the Lakes and the stories of the people who have lived, loved and worked here. Climbing over mountain passes, diving down into valleys and uncovering over 500 million years of history, you'll see why this is one of the most visited places in England.

We will start our session by warming up with a 20 min walk up towards Alcock tarn where you can witness the spectacular views over Grasmere mountains. Then we will head into the forest yoga yurt for a 3 hour workshop in 'Embodied Yoga' where we will move through both yin yoga for the connective tissue and yang (muscular) yoga to tone the whole body. We will have some fun with vinyasa flow to music and end with a deep relaxation. If the weather is nice we will also have our practice on the yoga platform, a purpose built platform overlooking the lake! This 3 hr workshop is for 2 to 6 people, so perfect with a friend. The full experience time is 4 hrs and walking boots will be need along with loose layers and a water bottle. A truly nurturing time to gain valuable body resources, feel great and have some fun. All bolsters, blocks, yoga mats and blankets provided. Along with a wonderful wood burning stove in the yurt. I promise, you will not want to leave!

We begin by meeting at the stunning waterfall viewing point by the church at Clapham. Then we head past the caves up to the famous Gaping Gill. We then progress up to Ingleborough summit where the views across Morecambe bay and the two peaks that make up the three peak challenge, Whernside and Pen-y-ghent are spectacular! This is followed by a descent to the remarkable limestone formations, rejoining the trail back to our starting point by the waterfall. Throughout the tour there are plenty of opportunities to pause to capture photo’s and take in the stunning views.

After meeting we will discuss the day ahead, check equipment and ensure we have everything needed for a safe ascent of Helvellyn. With head torches switched on we will begin our climb of Helvellyn. On a good but rocky mountain path we will zig zag up bracken covered slopes until we reach the subsidiary peak of Lower Man. We will then follow the ridge to the summit of Helvellyn. We will arrive at the summit just before dawn as the dark fades and a golden light bathes the far reaching views. From our lofty perch we will see the sun burst over the horizon, rise in to the sky and transform the landscape. Illuminated mountain slopes will glow with colour, deep shadows will highlight shape and form and we will feel the warmth of the new day. There will be plenty of time for photographs, a hot drink and snack before we begin our descent. During the day we will hear about local tales and legends, discuss mountain features and look at the wildlife. Providing you with a rich and memorable experience.

A brief but inspiring discussion on meditation and why we do it with horses will motivate you to be dedicated and vigilant in your practice. Then we go and meet the horses and I will teach you the basics in animal meditation. Then we groom the horses; this is the best way to get the horses to accept you as herd members as they bond by grooming each other. As we start to meditate, the more stable, connected and balanced the client, the easier it is for the horse to step into his role of soothing, regulating, teaching and inspiring with his gentle and peaceful energy. Often the horses will lie down and we can get down on the grass with them and be close and connected. We work on touching the horses in specific areas and watching for significant reactions to detect connection. There is often an opportunity to test your connection by asking the horses to follow you without a lead and then you can take a little walk together. We often finish with a beautiful guided meditation which will be chosen depending on the specific needs of the client. We always end the session with gratitude and a big horsey cuddle. Other things to note In the summer there may be flies. Bring sun hats and sun cream. Wrap up warm and water proof on winter and please wear wellies or firm boots. No experience of horses or meditation needed but please arrive with an open heart and an open mind.

Ullswater, quite rightly, is considered the most beautiful of the big lakes. It features bays & beaches, islands and lots of scenery. The ethos on the trips is always the same.

The first thing we'll do is sort out what's needed for the trip and introduce the boat. We use double ( tandem ) sea kayaks, unless there is an odd number of people on the trip, then the single is available. This is followed by a quick brief on what to do, then it's on to the water. There's no set route or furthest out point. I'll always take the group and the conditions into consideration. There is beautiful scenery all along the lake. The centre we launch from is closed on Tues & Wed from Sept - Dec ( We still launch from there ) so please use the toilets across the road from the gate. They are 50p & contactless.

Breath-work and wild swimming in Rydal is an excellent way to relax and reconnect to nature. Breath-work is a practice that helps to bring awareness to the breath, allowing for a greater connection to the body and mind. It can also help to reduce stress and anxiety. Rydal water is the perfect place for an introduction to Wild swimming. A peaceful yet invigorating experience, allowing swimmers to connect to the natural environment and enjoy the calming and refreshing waters of the lake. Both activities involve being present and in the moment, as well as connecting to the energy of the lake. The combination of the two activities is a wonderful way to relax and connect to nature.

Beautiful Walk, Guided Breathwork & Wild Swim Adventure *min 2 adults per trip An unforgettable adventure, taking guests of all ages, back to their natural human roots and connecting with the beautiful views the Lake District has to offer! I will guide my guests on a lovely walk through the foothills of the Lake District (I will be barefoot) - with simply stunning views over Lake Coniston - before stopping at a secluded tarn/small lake where we can wild swim (don't worry, we can prepare our bodies and minds for the water with a brief but empowering breathwork session - Wim Hof Method - it's an incredible feeling!). I will provide snacks and refreshments (mini picnic) for either the views at the top of the hill or to sit around the small lake/tarn in the sun. If guests would like to try barefoot walking (I highly recommend!) I will guide them on basic techniques of how to walk barefoot comfortably, connecting our feet to the earth, as our natural bodies were designed. This has fantastic benefits such as: reduced stress, strengthening your immune system, strengthens tendons and ligaments, realigns the foot to its natural form. I will happily take videos and photos of our trip. Dogs are more than welcome - please bring lead (dogs are fine off the lead as long as low prey drive). I hope to see you soon!

We have been providing magical woodland experiences for 12 years. We love the way people are at their absolute best when in awe at the abundance of nature and mystified by their beautiful surroundings. They soften their edges and open like children when immersed in this exploration and play. It never ceases to amaze us. Our Woodland Craft and Foraging Adventure will take you on a journey of education, connection and access; to the better observer of how you walk through the world. We will take you walking amongst the hidden gems of Rydal, one of the most beautiful parts of The Central Lake District. The walk will be 2 miles of nature identification and admiration through the eyes of a scholar. You will see waterfalls and plunge pools, lakes, mountains, streams and beautiful trees, plants and wildlife. We will then set up a bushcraft camp with a view. You will learn how to light a fire to cook on, some survival skills and making your own kit and craft. I will teach you how to cook a delicious lunch from the things that nature provides that will fill your belly and feed your soul. Connection begets connection and feeling your full participation with Mother Earth will open you up to bonding with the group and experience as a whole. Friends and memories will be made that you will treasure, always.

After a short introduction, we get on the water for a journey north, up Lake Windermere in Canadian Canoes - these can be stabilised if it would benefit the group or the weather is challenging. On the way you experience the profound shape of the Lake District Mountains rising up as we travel from the flatter coastlands towards the high hills. We make landfall at a piece of isolated land sticking out into the lake where we set up our day camp, learn to light fires from flint and cook our own three course lunch on the beach surrounded by trees and water. Depending on conditions and needs we have a fantastic motor boat that can accompany us, this gives a great platform for equipment transport, can bring wheel chairs (wheel chairs just roll onto the front ramp), whizz someone back to a specialist toilet and the ability to take the group home if we're late leaving. We don't always bring it - we make a judgement depending on the needs of the group and conditions. The actual event order is somewhat weather dependent and we will discuss alternative options for challenging weather nearer the time. Other things to note: We can accommodate a vast range of additional needs. We do however need some notice so we can bring the right equipment and plan accordingly please inform us of any additional needs before booking so we can discuss how best to make your experience great.
