Yoga Yurts - Kent

Yoga Yurts is a business, a home and a way of life. We live on a farm in Biggin Hill, North Kent, in a collection of yurts. We decided to live in this way to satisfy a need in us for more nature and a yearning for a connectedness to the land around us. We both grew up in the city and felt that it wasn't our natural home. Creating and sharing space has been a constant theme for us both for many years so in 2005 we decided to open up our space to others and began running yoga days and yoga retreats. Although feedback was great we found that the retreats depleted our energy in a way we couldn't have imagined and therefore we decided to concentrate on one day activities. On Yoga Days we open up our home; we share our space, our yoga and a different way of life with those who come to visit.

The Wood Life - Devon

The Tsavo front view

Have you ever dreamed of waking up in a sunny woodland clearing with only the wildlife for company?
If so, The Wood Life offers the perfect holiday for you.  A huge and stylish hand-made tent that's fully equipped.  Located in a beautiful woodland in total privacy, this is luxury camping in perfect peace.
Imagine the magic of letting your kids run wild in a wood for a week – think of the freedom.  But you’re not cramped in a cold wet tent, you’re in a comfortable, dry tent with real beds and a wood burning stove.

So while you relax with a long cold drink round a proper camp fire, the kids are busy playing in the tree house, exploring or building a den.  Or maybe it’s a romantic break you’re after or a wildlife watching experience.

Bouncers Farm Gypsy Camp - Essex

Over on the Essex coast, Ann Bishop is putting the finishing touches to a Gypsy Camp that she has been busy recreating for over a year. The two bowtop wagons are genuine articles, carefully restored. The bender tent with the day bed is a traditional accompaniment and the Queenie stove (it's a little wood-burner) and all the cooking equipment are the real thing too. From the pigs living on the other side of the orchard, to the blooming apple and cherry trees and the masses of delicious local produce, everything at Bouncers Farm seems full of life. With the coast and its many little-known beaches just four miles away, it's an unusual and nourishing escape from the city.

Canoe Adventures - Devon

For all ages and ability, why not try guided 12-seat Voyager canoeing offering you excellent fun on the wonderful River Dart in South Devon year round.  The youngest crew to date was little Sarah, aged 12 days; the eldest was Mr George, 87.

    Canoe Adventures work from and to the slipway beside the friendly Maltsters Arms  at Tuckenhay (TQ9 7EH) halfway between Totnes and Dartmouth, at the head of Bow Creek on the west bank of the glorious Dart.

    The Voyager canoes, aka Voyageur, are big and strong and easy to use. Each one comes with steersman-guide, and full canoeing equipment is supplied.  Everyone is invited to bring picnics, sometimes BBQs, and often we stop across the river at Stoke Gabriel for ice cream.  It is ideal for families with children, for people who gently want to try canoeing, for bold adventurers who've done it before, and for everyone who loves the water and an amazingly beautiful place like the Dart.
