| There
are three activity holidays to choose from ...
Mountain Walking WeekendEach year we visit a different Mountain area in the UK on a rotating basis on the Early May Bank Holiday weekend. We have run these wekends since 1992 and already explored the "3 peaks", Snowdonia, Mid Wales, Cader Idris, The Lake District (South, Central and North, The Yorshire Dales and Breacon Beacons. The aim of the weekend is to just get away from it all, spend our time in the mountains, walking, relaxing and generally enjoying God's creation and each other's company, so there will be no pressure to walk every day. There are plenty of other options available, if you wish to deviate from the main "plan". This weekend will run from Friday evening in Gerrards Cross OR Saturday morning meeting in the area, to Monday afternoon. The price includes accommodation, food and a guided walk programme, but excludes transport. A £5 discount is offered for early bookings.
'Hit the Beach' WeekendWe are again taking over the whole Port Eynon youth hostel, on the Gower. We have been running weekends here since 1983 and have now run over 30 such "beach based" (Sun, Sea & Surf) activity weekends! This takes place on the Late August Bank Holiday weekend. The aim of the weekend is to have a wacky, outdoor, "get away" experience. We hope to be sea kayaking, waveskiing, windsurfing, cliff-walking, sailing, relaxing, enjoying God's creation and each other's company. This weekend starts from Friday pm in Gerrards Cross OR Saturday am on the beach, and runs until Monday afternoon/evening. It includes accommodation, food and use of the activity equipment. A £5 discount is offered for early bookings.
Adult Activity Holiday WeekBased at St. George's House in Georgeham, North Devon. This is an old rectory that has been converted into a comfortably furnished Christian Centre, with dormitory accommodation but a cosy feel. Georgeham is a small village near to a 3 mile long surf beach in a beautiful coastal area. We aim to have loads of fun together, in an enjoyable setting, learning from each other and God. During the day, people can be as active or as lazy as they wish. The price of the holiday includes full board and a programme offering all of the following activities (weather permitting) ... Kayaking, Mountain Biking, Surfing, Archery and Rock Climbing (including Abseiling) are the core activities with all equipment and instruction provided. With a week available it is possible to specialise and pursue one or two activities in some depth. Or you may prefer to try as many as time and energy permit! Also available, once or at most twice, are Sailing (Wayfarers or Toppers) and Waterskiing (or bouncy biscuit). Other local activities on offer are coastal walking, volleyball, leisure centre, horse-riding, cream teas, sunbathing (no promises) and other North Devon delights. If you want a private room to be on your own, waitress service and full hotel comforts, please don't book! If you want fun and lots to do, then this holiday held in early September is excellent value. We recommend this as a beautiful area for those who simply want to get away.
