Whitehough is one of my favourite places to go. It’s peaceful, and I feel calm when I’m here. I really like the Leap of Faith – it’s a bit scary, but I feel proud when I do it. Being outside just helps me think clearer and feel better.

There was something really powerful about holding a space for women in such a natural, calming environment. The setting, the sunshine, and the way everyone showed up so openly, everything just flowed. It was beautiful to see the difference in energy from start to finish

We visited last summer term and can honestly say that we had a fantastic time! From the variety of activities, to the skillful, kind, caring and energetic staff who coordinated the activities, it was just wonderful. The grounds are beautiful and set in the most incredible setting. A well-equipped equipment Centre and games room kept us all secure and active.

Thank you for such a lovely trip! From enquiring, booking and on the day the whole process was very friendly and well organised. Whitehough accommodated for our needs making the whole process trouble free. On the day everything was arranged to maximize and make the most of the day.
