My weekend retreat was a great holiday full of fun and and adventure. I felt very well.looked after, with great food, super itinerary of different swimming and dipping opportunities and challenges. Great information and guidance on swimming safety, open water swimming conditions and a great talk on tides and sea conditions. Absolutely the best staff and lifeguards continually looking after our safety. I really appreciate the hardwork and commitment of Richard, Mel, Becky and other lifeguards making my weekend so wonderful. Your support has increased my confidence and love of open water swimming.

We had a wonderful swim retreat weekend in beautiful Dorset celebrating Fiona’s 60th birthday. The swims were the absolute highlight made possible by thoughtful planning, amazing local knowledge and the safety protocols in place. Thank you to the amazing team who looked after us so well, Rich, Mel, Becky, Elle and Hector. Sandyholme House was a great location, the catering absolutely hit the spot especially the post swim cakes. You were all so hospitable and nothing was too much trouble. Thank you for a memorable weekend.

Thanks so much to Rich, Mel, Elle & Hector for a truly memorable weekend. I loved every minute. The swims were epic and the team do everything they can to make sure that everyone (whatever their swim level) has a wonderful experience. The team are so friendly and patient- answering all our questions to alleviate any worries and thinking of all the details to ensure a smooth experience. The food was great- particularly the handmade pizzas, their knowledge and experience was 5 star. I’d highly recommend their retreats to anyone who enjoys swimming and beautiful natural environments. It was a perfect way to forget the daily demands of a busy life.
