Luxury Wales SUP Adventure - 1st October

Our accomodation is Blaencwm Cottages. Blaencwm Cottages is the perfect escape from the stress of your busy life. They are located just outside of the quaint town of Cardigan, and the cosy cottages are set in 4 acres of green farmland, with a backdrop of the Preseli Hills right on your doorstep. We will have access to the sauna and the accommodation has a fully equipped kitchen. We remain close to the famous Wales coast path, which stretches a spectacular 870 miles long and was the first dedicated footpath in the world to cover the entire length of a country's coastline.

Cardigan Bay is teaming with local wildlife including being home to the largest population of bottlenose dolphins in Europe. In the autumn season, seals come on to Cwmtydu beach to have their pups!

With this stunning setting, who could wish for more?  Well, there is more, much more!

Our SUP Adventure begins with welcome drinks and a BBQ feast with your hosts, Lesley and Scott.  The perfect opportunity to unwind by the firepit and settle in.  Each morning will start with breakfast and briefing, detailing the activity of the day and safety information.

Our activities for the trip include:

• River SUP trip
• SUP skills and drills
• Sunrise/sunset paddle
• Coastal paddle to secluded bays along the stunning Pembrokeshire coastline
• Gentle introduction to SUP Surf
• Gentle introduction to Downwinding
• Breathtaking hike  along the Coastal Path or a woodland or riverside ramble

(The appropriate activity will be decided each day dependant on weather and water conditions)

It's 'you' time!

As well as our activities, we want you to enjoy some downtime, whether you decide to chill at the bay, take a coastal or woodland stroll, go for a drive or even an afternoon nap!
