Absolutely outstanding experience! We felt safe throughout and the instructors were really encouraging. We were a group of 27 ranging from 10 to 50 years old.

Amazing instructors felt totally safe . 27 of us all made the jumps. Highly recommend.
Awesome experience, loved all the jumps, slides and adventures. Jack was really great and encouraged all the group to do everything was great! 100% recommend!
Outstanding day out, couldn’t recommend enough. Jack, Les and Innias were brilliant
We booked a canyoning experience at Church Beck with Jack over the bank holiday weekend, despite personally being quite nervous Jack put everyone at ease! It was a really good afternoon & Jack is very knowledgeable and fun to be around - someone who is obviously very talented at his job! Would highly recommend! Thanks again Jack!
My dad and I had the most amazing day scrambling and rock climbing in the Lake District with our instructor Jack. We absolutely loved the whole experience and were so happy we managed to fit it in before heading home!
Jack was fantastic from start to finish. He was so approachable, friendly and encouraging throughout, making us feel completely safe and supported while still making the day exciting and fun. The scenery was absolutely incredible, and the whole experience was such a great way to explore the Lake District.
There were so many laughs and great memories made, and we couldn’t have asked for a better guide or a better experience.
A truly incredible day that we’ll definitely remember! We would highly recommend Jack to anyone looking for a fun, scenic and memorable adventure in the Lake District. Thank you so much!

Squeezing a day in before the drive home is always a good shout, Lydia, and I'm chuffed it turned out to be a memorable one. Days out with a dad are some of my favourites to guide, and the pair of you made it an easy one to run. Thank you for the lovely words, and do come back for more of the same.
Amazing guide, for a first-timer this was perfect. I liked that there were other options for some of the things! Will do again ☺️

Giving people a choice matters a lot to me, Saga, especially on a first go at it. Nobody should feel pushed into a jump they aren't ready for, and it sounds like you found your own level nicely. Thanks for the five stars, and I'll look forward to the next one.
Amazing canyoning experience with Jack. We felt safe all along the way and really enjoyed the activity!

Cheers, Elisa. Feeling safe is what lets people actually enjoy the wild bits rather than just endure them, so hearing both in the same sentence is the best feedback I can get. Really glad you had a good day out, and you're very welcome back any time.
My son and I had a fantastic canyoning experience with Jack. He explained everything clearly and reassured us throughout. I nearly backed out of a couple of the challenges, but with Jack’s encouragement I’m glad I didn’t — the sense of achievement was brilliant.
The fresh, clear water running through the Cumbrian landscape was stunning, and nowhere near as cold as I expected. Travelling together down the beck above Coniston Water is something my son and I will remember with real fondness for a long time.

Talking yourself into something you nearly walked away from is the bit that sticks, and you did the hard part yourself — I only stood there sounding confident. The becks above Coniston Water really are lovely and clear at this time of year, and the wetsuits do a better job than people expect. Thanks for taking the time to write this, and my best to your son.
I had a great time it was very fun and exciting !

Fun and exciting is exactly what I'm going for, Ellie, so that'll do nicely. Thank you for the five stars and for taking a minute to leave a few words — it genuinely helps a small outfit like ours. Hope to see you out there again.
It was very fun and there was lots of good scrambling to do! I cant wait to go back try the next level

Right then, William — a step up it is. There are some cracking harder scrambles round here once you've got the basics sorted, so give us a shout when you fancy it and we'll pick something with a bit more bite. Thanks for the review.
Had an awesome time
Way beyond what I was expecting
Jack is a true professional

Beating expectations is a nice problem to have, Laurence — thank you. I'd rather people turn up not quite knowing what they're in for and leave grinning than the other way round. Appreciate you writing this, and there's plenty more where that came from whenever you're back.
It was an absolute blast, Jack the instructor was legendary. Definitely recommend to anyone who wants to try something new in the Lakes

"Legendary" might be pushing it, Dylan, but I'll take it and say nothing more. Trying something new on holiday takes a bit of nerve and you threw yourself into it properly. Cheers for the recommendation — that's the sort of thing that keeps us busy.
A great adventure for all ages, the leader inspired confidence and reassurance to get the best out of everyone in the group to ensure they enjoyed the most forfilment from the activity. Will look forward to booking again.

Getting a mixed-age group all enjoying the same day is the puzzle I most enjoy solving, Robert, so I'm pleased it worked for everyone. Reading the room and pitching it right is half the job. Thank you for the kind words, and we'd be glad to have you back whenever you're ready to book.
Great time Canyonning this afternoon. Really well organised, very clear instructions on where to meet, what to bring and how to signal we were safe as we emerged from the water….. having just dropped from height! Do IT!! You’ll love it!!

Lovely to see the boring bits get a mention, Lisa — the meeting point, the kit list and the hand signal are what let everyone relax enough to enjoy the drops. Surfacing after one of those with a thumbs up is a good feeling. Thanks for the write-up, and for the sales pitch at the end!
Jack’s family adventure days are fantastic, we’ve come back for more. Loads of Fun and super well organised. small kids and teens both love him. We’ll be back next summer.

Repeat visitors are the best compliment going, Kate, so thank you. Keeping small kids and teenagers happy on the same day is a proper balancing act, and I'm glad we've managed it more than once now. Pencil us in for next summer — I'll find you something new to try.
This was one of the best experiences I’ve ever been on. Jack our instructor was an amazing guy, kept us safe throughout on what was an amazing adrenaline adventure ❤️

That's a big call, James, and I'll happily take it. Getting the adrenaline right while everyone stays safe is the balance we're always chasing, so I'm really pleased the day landed that way for you. Cheers for coming out with us. Jack
My son and nephews attended this experience and were a tough audience and Lake District adventuring did not let them down! The event was well organised and great fun and I would highly recommend

A tough audience is the best kind to win over, so I'm pleased your son and nephews came away happy, Aimee. Getting the organisation right behind the scenes is what lets everyone else just enjoy the day, so it's good to hear that showed. Thanks for the recommendation - send them back our way any time. Jack
Weather conditions meant that we were unable to do canyoning as we had originally booked, but Jack took us on a ‘ghyll scramble’ through Stickle ghyll instead.
All kit was provided and with a safety brief before we started and we headed off on a little mini adventure through the stream.
The cold water and mini challenges through the experience were great and Jack kept everyone engaged and comfortable with the challenge throughout, culminating in a climb through the waterfall at the top. Our whole family declared this their favourite experience of the week. Thanks Jack.

Kevin, changing the plan on the day is never the phone call anyone wants, so I'm really glad Stickle Ghyll came good for you. That climb up through the waterfall at the top is one of my favourite finishes anywhere in the Lakes, and it sounds like your lot took to the cold water better than most. Thanks for the kind words - hopefully we'll get you that canyoning day next time. Jack
Had a great time out wit Jack coming down the waterfalls. Great fun and felt comfortable and safe in his hands.

Coming down the waterfalls is the bit everyone talks about afterwards, Eddie, and it's a lot more fun when you feel settled enough to enjoy it - so that's good to hear. Thanks for taking the time to write this. You know where we are whenever you fancy another one. Jack
