The price for each holiday includes accommodation (based on 2 people sharing), all meals (breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks), transport on tour, admission fees, guidance / tuition and the use of equipment, unless otherwise stated.

Sample course - Kickstart to fitness
We will help you take the first step towards a healthier way of life. These courses of 2 - 3 days duration cater for any level of fitness and provide a programme of consistent, but gentle exercise and an opportunity to experience different activities, including nordic walking, yoga and pilates. There is no pressure to participate in any session and if you want to take some time out, there are plenty of other activities to enjoy and places to visit in the beautiful Peak District countryside.
Ideal to stir you into action for a wedding, beach holiday or other special occasion. Also ideal for hen parties. You will be guaranteed 7 hours per day of gentle exercise and instruction in holistic activities.
