Fforest Camp

I awoke gently as the sun began to rise, the faint rustle of the breeze flowing through the canvas. Snuggled up by my side my dog stretches out and gives a sigh, the stove is still throwing off a warm glow from the night before. I take a deep breath of fresh air and look over the duvet and out across the fields. A feeling of calm waves over me and a smug smile appears on my face, today is going to be a good day!

A good wise friend of mine always says ‘There is nothing finer than a life more outdoors’. For me standing still in the morning air, taking in a deep breath in the beautiful places I find myself and watching the joy on my dog's faces as they skip across a field puts everything into perspective. Life is good! 

Being outdoors is key to keeping my mental health on form and my life calm. This place is perfect for outdoor adventures and quality time reconnecting with yourself, your family or friends. It is dog utopia. Leave your stressed out self at the gate and as you enter this place feel well, calm, relaxed.

Out door adventures are top of my list of things I need to keep me happy and healthy. I love nothing more than to go feral for a few days and live life outside. Last year I found the perfect place that filled my heart full of joy every single moment of my stay. 

Beautifully designed accommodation for outdoor living with practical cooking facilities so I could cook myself beautiful nutritious meals. Long beach walks, coeliac friendly pubs and cafes, dog friendly well designed spaces and places to spend time. A hassle free few days being present with myself, my friends and dogs without the distraction of life, work or the virtual world. I honestly could not have found a better place to spend four days reading, resting, walking, eating, laughing and dreaming. I cannot recommend it highly enough. 

Their slogan is Stay, Play, Dream and it is the perfect place do do all three! I guarantee you may arrive sinking under the weight of life but you will leave floating above the surface. 

Jolly Loves Fforest Camp in Wales. It may be cold outside but you will feel warm inside from your stay in this gloriously peaceful place. www.coldatnight.co.uk

Find a place that fills your heart full of joy, put down your phone and be present. You will not regret it!

Thank you for reading the Jolly Journal - I really appreciate your interest and hope it's of value to you. I am dyslexic and for years this stopped me writing because of the fear of getting it wrong. Now I am embracing my fear so I appreciate your understanding if you see a mistake I have missed. Thank you! - Polly x
