Our experience weekends offer a great opportunity to see if Calvert Lakes is right for you – and we’re confident it is! Try your chosen activity on a short 2-night stay and sample true Calvert hospitality.
Experience weekends are ideal for families and adults who are looking to try a new activity. Groups are also welcome and can select any of our experience activities, on any weekend we have availability.
Currently, we offer cycling weekends, sailing weekends and rock and rope weekends. Each offers the chance to try a new activity in a safe and supportive environment.
If you have a thirst for new adventures, have accessibility requirements (or the person you’re visiting with has) and haven’t visited us before, then we’d suggest our experience weekends are perfect for you!
We’re committed to making our activity breaks accessible to as many people as possible, which is why limited bursary funding is available to help reduce the cost. Because our funding is often restricted, we prioritise those who’d most benefit from financial assistance. While we cannot guarantee support for every enquiry, we encourage anyone facing financial barriers to get in touch. Our team is here to guide you through the process and help you explore the options available.
