"Lifechanging."

I booked a place on this course unsure what to expect. But after completing Level 1 Bushcraft I can genuinely say it was totally transformative. As someone who runs their own business, I am often under high levels of pressure and spend far too much time on my phone and on other devices. Taking time out, under the brilliant direction of course leader Ian Huntington enabled me to regroup, reset and recharge. Family and friends both mentioned how refreshed I looked and acted upon returning. And now, nearly a year on, I am still using skills and tips acquired on the course. Can't recommend it highly enough.

NB: Course leader Ian also was incredibly understanding about a sudden last minute change with regard to attendees within our party. Went out of his way to make sure the course could be adapted.

"Contagious excitement"

My colleague recently booked onto and completed this. He was so enthused when he came back that I am now planning to book myself and friend on too. I will write another review as soon as I have completed.

"Had a great time doing the course a…"

Had a great time doing the course a while back. I was attending with a colleague and found ourselves in amongst a large contingent of NHS staff. Had a fantastic time and learnt some valuable skills as well. It was particularly good to see how the instructor Ian brought people together to work as a team who wouldn't ordinarily do so!

"Yorkshire 3 Peaks"

Ian organised a Challenging Yorkshire 3 peaks hike for our Group of 15 year olds.
Everything was brilliantly set up, hot drinks & food stations for the lads & dads, and all went as clockwork!
We all couldn't recommend Ian Highly enough.

"I’ve had two woodland weekends with…"

I’ve had two woodland weekends with Spartan Survival and both have been AMAZING! My first was a weekend with me and my 13 year old daughter learning to build our own shelter, whittle tent pegs, build fires in the rain, cook food, forage and so much more. The second was a team building weekend with business colleagues which was huge fun. I can’t recommend these guys more highly. Spartan Survival were happy to change their usual weekend programme to suit our particular team (all businesswomen, of whom a couple had had survival training already) and were willing to include our ideas to make the weekend very special. Two great experiences- I’m so looking forward to our next adventure! Thank you Ian and team x

"Yorkshire 3 peaks"

We used Spartan for a trip to the Yorkshire 3 peaks. Ian was extremely helpful and professional at all times. His guidance made the trip safe and enjoyable for all - and I would recommend his company to anyone.

"DO NOT BOOK WITH THIS COMPANY"

DO NOT BOOK WITH THIS COMPANY, DEALT WITH IAN HUNTINGTON. WE BOOKED LEVEL 1 AND HAD TO CANCEL 2 DAYS BEFORE DUE TO 6 INCHES OF SNOW. OUR 12 YEAR OLD GIRL WAS BOOKED ON WITH US . WE COULDNT EVEN GET OUT OF OUR DRIVE . IAN WAS HAPPY TO CANCEL AND RESCHEUDLE. WE HEARD NOTHING FOR 3 MONTHS SO CONTACTED HIM AND HE SAID HE HAS SEPTEMBER BUT WE SAID WE WOULD RATHER HAVE REFUND. HE REFUSED THIS AS WE CANCELLED AND STATED CLAUSE 4, HE SAID WE SHOULD OF STILL GONE AHEAD IN 6 INCHES OF SNOW AND CAMPED OUT IN THE SNOW WITH OUR DAUGHTER, WE HAVE EVEN SAID WE WILL TAKE PART REFUND SO HES NOT OUT OF POCKET. LEVEL 1 IS SUPPOSED TO BE FUN BUT NOT ACCORDING TO IAN . DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY AS THEY KEEP YOUR MONEY AND WONT REFUND. HIS ATTITUDE IS TERRIBLE AND EXPECTS 12 YEAR OLDS TO SLEEP WILD IN THE SNOW. WHAT A JOKE OF A MAN. HE HAS ALSO BLOCKED ME ON TEXT AND WHATS APP AS WONT DEAL WITH ANY PROBLEMS. DO NOT USE IAN HUNTINGTON HE IS A BULLY !!

"Level 1 bushcraft…"

My husband and 12 year old daughter just completed the level 1 bushcraft survival weekend. Wow- they loved every minute! A weekend of connection, fresh air, learning new skills and fun. Could not recommend this experience enough. They have taken away memories and knowledge that will last a lifetime. Thankyou to Ian and the team, what a brilliant experience.
