We have teamed up with The Wensleydale Experience based in the Yorkshire Dales hamlet of Swinithwaite to bring you this gorgeous yet wild, glamping retreat in the heart of the Yorkshire Dales. We will be hosting this wild swimming retreat on the Farm at The Wensleydale Experience. You will be treated to the gorgeous Yurt accommodation at which boasts fantastic views across the Wensleydale valley, tranquillity and all the relaxing vibes needed. Over the 3 days you will enjoy delicious home cooked food, guided wild swimming at Redmire Falls, Stand Up Paddle boarding at Lake Semerwater, a 1 hour Mindfulness Walk, a 1 hour Breathwork workshop and all this finished off with foraged cocktails and wild feast . This is very much a chance to enjoy the Dales and the wonderful nature it has to offer all whilst having a great glamping adventure.

Accommodation

The Wensleydale Experience is home to 6 off grid yurts. These are all fully kitted out and each has an outdoor shower and toilet, log burner, linen & towels, a wood fired hot tub and tea & coffee making facilities. The Yurts will be shared between two people with a double bed and a double futon bed. The yurts are in a quiet hamlet location in the heart of the Dales and offer a cosy and natural vibe with a full glamping style experience to compliment your Farm based retreat.
