The Acres

Josh and the team at Acres provided us with a fantastic experience. 20 intrepid members of Cardiff Triathletes turned up on a freezing cold January morning, full of eagerness and not a clue what would lie ahead. We were all so impressed by the delivery of the session, starting with a proper warm up which was a must on such a cold day. We worked as a team as well as raced against each other over the variety of activities. We all tried things we’d never done before, from rope climbing and the bar hang to the Wim Hof breathing method and an ice cold water dip. We all thoroughly enjoyed the experience and we’ll definitely book in again for another session … when it’s warmer!

An absolutely amazing experience for our students as well as the staff. The location and facilities are stunning and Chris and Josh are phenomenal instructors who managed to engage our least receptive students and ensured they had a memorable experience. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed the day and we can't wait to revisit again. We are fortunate in that we have visited twice now and every visit gets more exciting than the previous. Highly recommended for all ages and abilities.

Josh & the team took Pontypridd United Women through a team building and fitness session during our season. It was a cold Thursday evening but that didn’t stop the high level of enthusiasm, challenge and enjoyment that spread amongst the team almost immediately. The level of challenge was perfect, the staff were outstanding and by the end of our two hours everyone was tired, soaking wet but all asking when can we come back? We will be back and we can’t wait. Thanks again Josh, it was a brilliant evening

I couldn’t recommend highly enough. From the moment me and my team stepped into the yoga studio (our office for the day) we immediately felt the wow factor, the stunning views the immaculate set up and the preparation put together by the Acres team was impressive. The day went on and didn’t let us down.I took my team to Acres to go through a few business priorities in the morning and then we were lead by Instructor Chris for a few well-being classes/practices that hugely thought provoking / impactful, which I’m sure we can all benefit from in our day to day lives.My team and I can’t recommend Acres enough and will definitely visit again.Thank you!!!

Absolutely loved my experience at The Acres! Chris and Josh were fab. We fitted in lots of different activities into the morning and finished off with an ice plunge dip. I haven’t stopped talking about my experience with friends and family, 10/10 would recommend! All abilities will enjoy!

The Wealthify Senior Leadership Team had the most fantastic day of activities at Acres, from team navigation and rescuing Deborah, to an amazing breathing workshop with Chris, then finishing off the day with cold water therapy. We were pushed to our extremes, but Chris and Josh made us feel that we could accomplish anything! Thanks for a super day Chris, Josh and Peggy - we will be back stronger than ever!

A few of our gym members at gain fitness are into cold water therapy for all the health benefits, so when we saw what the guys at ACRES were offering there was a lot interest. The experience we had there was absolutely brilliant. A few of the members had never done it, but that was a problem as the day was suitable for beginners to experienced dippers. Chris and Josh had us all warm up together focusing on the importance of using the diaphragm. We did a lot of work focusing on breathing and the importance of nose breathing. Everyone managed to control their breathing and completed the cold plunge in the amazing little natural spot. The class touch was the coffee and warm fire ready for the end of the session. Everyone had a great time and I would urge anyone to get involved especially if it’s something that you’re looking try out. Thanks again.

Josh and Chris at the Green Mile Camp put together a day that exceeded all expectations for the group!From start to finish the attention to detail was absolutely superb and no member of the team felt left out.Everything was tailored specifically to meet people where there at regardless of injuries which meant a real team atmosphere was created.All in all a great day for us to step outside our comfort zone, work together as a team to become more physically and mentally resilient.

We attended a pre season camp with our U15s team. And it was fantastic. The coaches are very knowledgeable, taught the kids some life lessons when it comes to looking after their bodies and using the gym. Topped out with great team bonding. Thanks to all at acres
