Tips from the team

I used to think visiting gardens was something reserved for pensioners and my parents but then I went to Trebah, a 26 acre sub-tropical garden which slopes down to a private cove perfect for wild swimming. David West, marketing & social media

This is probably not as dangerous as it looks! We always have our tree swings and portable fire pit in our rucksacks so we can ‘set up camp’ for a bit if we find a good spot. This was a good place with big trees and great views near Luckett in East Cornwall. I have never grown out of the thrill of swinging high in the trees. A night-time swing when the sky is crammed with stars is one of the most magical experiences. Gabrielle Kuzak, Business Delivery Manager

A lovely walk in Devon, into Salcombe, stopping off at The Salcombe Deli to pick up some lunch (great sandwiches!) and getting the ferry over to East Portlemouth. Rest the day was just us on the beach at Mill Bay, playing bat and ball games and enjoying the sun. Laura Fairman, Digital Coordinator

I woke the boys up at 5:30am one morning and said ‘come on, lets go watch the sun rise’. It was magical! A special moment and memory we will never forget. Justine Fox, Guest Experience Manager

Walked another section of the South West coast path. We've set ourselves the goal of walking the entire 630 miles and we are closing in on it! This is a beautiful section near Newquay - 9 miles of sparkly sea. Stunning. Boys always at their happiest when they are wild and free. Gabrielle Kuzak, Business Delivery Manager

Ffyona Campbell walked round the world for 9 years, including 3 of those years in Africa with Ray Meares! Myself and 3 friends spent a day walking bare foot around the beautiful gardens of Southcombe Barn, foraging for all the edible things that were growing there. We dug for pig nuts too! Tessa Holmes, Business Development Manager

Me and the boys do ‘wild weekend lunches’ where we take a picnic in a backpack and go off exploring for good spots. This one was bluebell season at Prior Woods, just outside of Bristol Justine Fox, Guest Experience Manager

This was just down the South West coastal path from Beare's Den campsite. There's a lovely little beach cafe that we went to several times and one evening we got fish and chips and sat on the rocks having dinner. Christopher Wilson-Elmes, copy writer

Took the kids rock pooling but it quickly turning into rock climbing. A local favourite spot, Clevedon, been loads before but the kids still said it was the best day ever! Lisa Wilson, Business development Executive
