A Few Spots Left

This area is one of the most popular UK locations for walking and hiking, guided tours, and ideal for the structure of the weight loss and fitness camp. There is also the famous Peak District Tissington Trail which we use as an enjoyable fitness excursion during your stay. The south trail begins near Ashbourne and the north end is located near Sterndale Moor.

Our beautiful fitness camp and weight loss retreat accommodation consists of a cluster of cottages and houses with beautiful bedrooms that all contain en-suite bathrooms or wet rooms. These picturesque cottages have smart, contemporary interiors that facilitate all your needs during your stay. The cottages are modern in design and construction and provide fantastic scenic views of the lake nearby.

Each contains spacious and comfortable bedrooms, kitchens and dining areas, bathrooms or wet rooms, and any necessary appliances such as televisions, washers, and dryers. All cottages have fresh clean linen with individual room central heating to ensure a warm and cozy stay.

The closest train station is Matlock where we provide collections from and also return you at the end of your course. The East Midlands airport is only 1 hour from Matlock station and all necessary travel information will be provided in your joining details to prepare you with all the information you need to have a comfortable and stress-free trip.

We send you a nutrition questionnaire before the start of the course so if you have any special requirements we can adapt the programme for you still keeping it healthy and nutritionally balanced. If you have any allergies, food dislikes, foods that cannot be eaten for religious reasons please let us know and we will tailor our programme to suit your dietary requirements.

Our goal is to send you home with a renewed passion for food and with lots of easy to follow recipes.

We focus on having a more positive relationship with food and inspiring permanent change. We do not just see food simply as fuel, it is about giving your body what it needs to restore balance and help itself. Providing the right nutrients at the right time ensures that appetite and cravings stay under control and crucially promotes portion size re-training.

Our accommodation consists of a cluster of cottages and houses with beautiful bedrooms that all contain en-suite bathrooms or wet rooms. These picturesque cottages have smart, contemporary interiors that facilitate all your needs during your stay. The cottages are modern in design and construction and provide fantastic scenic views of the lake nearby.

Itinerary

Typical Daily Schedule

The schedule has been designed so people of all different levels of fitness can take part. We send out a detailed health and nutrition questionnaire before the start of a course so we can gauge levels of fitness and tailor the program accordingly.

7:00am

Wake up Workout

Our Wake up Workout is the first session of the day and scheduled before breakfast. Scientific studies have shown this is the optimum time to burn body fat because your body is in a natural fasted state. Insulin levels are lower during this period, which means you will lose more of your fat from your fat tissue as fuel. The Wake Up Workout helps you respond to insulin, keeping your blood sugar levels under control and ultimately lowering the risk of diabetes and heart disease.

8:30am

Breakfast

Every Breakfast is very different and extremely nutrient dense. Following our nutritional therapist macro nutrients guidelines. You will always be eating the correct amount of protein, carbohydrates and healthy fats with every breakfast. There is a mixture of hot and cold breakfast which include breakfast smoothies, organic buckwheat pancakes, baked avocado with egg and everyone's favourite the full healthy cooked breakfast.


9:15am

Countryside Walk

One of the main criteria when selecting a location is the countryside walks. We want you to be inspired by the surroundings as this influences how you feel, respond and think. Scientifically walking improves your cardiovascular fitness, strengthens your bones and muscles, improves muscle endurance and increases your energy levels.
