I had the most incredible weekend in Snowdonia — a truly magical experience from start to finish. The wild swimming in the lakes and waterfalls was absolutely exhilarating, and every dip felt like a little adventure of its own. The scenery was breathtaking, and the whole trip had such an energising, feel-good vibe. The accommodation was wonderful — warm, welcoming, and so cosy after a day outdoors. The beds were super comfy, and the whole place had that relaxed, homely atmosphere that makes you instantly feel at ease. The home-cooked food was delicious (and plentiful!), and every meal felt like it had been made with real care. What really made the weekend special, though, were the people. I met such amazing, like-minded souls — everyone was friendly, supportive, and up for a laugh. It was one of those trips that leaves you feeling refreshed, inspired, and grateful. I honestly couldn’t recommend it more — perfect for anyone looking to connect with nature, meet great people, and make unforgettable memories.

It was my first time going on a wild swim adventure. It was an adventure well planned out, great location. The accommodation was clean tidy and comfortable. There were a lovely bunch of people taken part .Thanks to Mel, Rich, Paul and Frith made the whole weekend was memorable one. Food was good too. Will definitely book another trip. As a suggestion it may be worth to let people know that you have to drive to location. For those who didn’t have a car can double up with those whom have.

It was a great experience with friends and the organisation was excellent. Thank you so much for the opportunity and the marshalls were all so supportive. Hope to be back next year.

We had an amazing tour of the rocks, despite the weather not allowing us to do the full exploration, we were still able to get out and onto the rocks. Our swim guide was very knowledgeable and the whole team welcomed us on arrival. The rib ride out and back was great fun.
