Graythwaite Adventure (formerly CBA Events @ Graythwaite) provides award winning outdoor adventure experiences on Graythwaite Estate; 5,000 acres of carefully managed estate land, woodland, parkland and lake frontage on the western sh

ore of Windermere in the heart of the Lake District National Park. Guests can enjoy 4x4 off road driving on the challenging course that takes you to some of the most remote areas on the estate with majestic views. Clay pigeon shooting, archery and axe throwing are enjoyed at our shooting site whilst bushcraft experiences are held in the ancient woodland. Grubbins Point, a calm and secluded bay, is where we run watersports from April to October; choose from paddleboards, kayaks or canoes or you may opt for a boat tour on our 10 seater RIB boat. We’ve designed and built the Lake District’s only purpose-built off-road course with BORDA (British Off Road Driving Association) accreditation and BORDA qualified instructors providing expert tuition. Our shooting site provides the perfect place to learn and practice skills, with drinks and snacks served from the lodge and a roaring fire pit. Tim and Sara have been designing, organising and delivering activities, events and experiences worldwide since the 1990’s and have now firmly settled where they both grew up, in the English Lake District. Welcoming couples, families, groups and corporate clients, guests are guaranteed to leave Graythwaite Adventure with happy memories for years to come. Experience : Explore : Escape.

Saturday morning, at Graythwaite Hall, as we prepared for the arrival of guests. As well as our usual activities, we specialise in bespoke experiences, carefully designed to guarantee a memorable visit to the Estate.

Yesterday’s guests chose from a skippered boat tour, 4x4 off road driving, a guided lakeshore walk or HIDE | A hidden sauna tucked away in the best of settings. Elevenses were enjoyed on the terrace in the sunshine.

A really lovely morning. 💛

Here’s 40 seconds of how we make guests feel. 😊

This was a lot of fun to put together, and I smiled the whole time. Honestly, I’ve face ache given how long it takes me (still) to edit a reel 🤣.

Enjoy. The little dance and the unexpected axe throw at the end are two of my favourites - forever funny.

A day in the life | Wednesday on film.

Families, couples and groups of friends, off-road driving, archery, axe throwing, clays and a two boat tour, one day captured. Not unlike other days but for the people we share it with. That’s what makes what we do exciting, varied, fun and interesting. You. 😊

Rewind five years ago this week and we’re midway through an 8-week Netflix project. Long days, blue sky, and back to back fun and games. Here we are, prepping for the contestants’ arrival. They had no idea what they were letting themselves in for. 😬

Months of planning, and once onsite we built and delivered the tasks, ran errands, managed crew travel logistics and catering.

The estate provided an ideal location and backdrop, away from it all - perfect for the brief.

Netflix’s words, not ours. ‘Welcome to Snowflake Mountain. A place where ragtag stuck at home snowflakes with zero life skills have to step up to the plate. Built as a wilderness boot camp, our snowflakes will compete to see who has what it takes, competing for a life-changing prize and the chance to kickstart their life and liberate their parents.’

Did you watch it?

I often wonder where those that took part are now.

These little ones came to see what we were doing yesterday morning, as we prepared the boats. Aren’t they adorable? See how the mother (usually) carries the cygnets on her back, to protect them from the elements and lurking predators.

The sunniest days, a double bank holiday, children on half term, boats back on the water, off-road driving training yet more enthusiasts, some super fun guests and a charity event.

Thank you to everyone who’s been involved. 🙌

With lovely people on a , at Silverholme, in the sunshine you know it’s going to be a good day. Add breakfast burritos and ginger shots to the welcome and it gets even better.

We shared some of the Estate’s rich history and its grounds this week on two guided walks taking us along the lake shore to Grubbins Point with fine views up and down the lake, on woodland paths with bluebells and through the park surrounding Graythwaite Hall.

Teams competed in axe throwing mid-way; a chance to learn something new and expose hidden talents.

Most importantly it brought colleagues together, away from the usual workplace and distractions, to connect, relax and embrace a different environment.

Always a pleasure to work with you and your clients, thank you Caroline. 💫
