Accommodation
The Courtyard Wing, Penpont
Nestled within the beautiful grounds of Penpont Estate, The Courtyard Wing is a peaceful and characterful place to rest after a day spent exploring. Tucked beside the historic walled garden and surrounded by rolling Welsh countryside, the Grade I listed accommodation blends rustic charm with warm, homely comfort. Expect cosy bedrooms, generous communal spaces for gathering together, and views that invite you to slow down and breathe deeply.
There are 6 bedrooms with a mixture of double and single beds available.
Secure Your SpaceThe Food
The food will be home-cooked by our chef, Ella from Girls Who Dine. Ella will make indulgent, rejuvenating, sharing-style feasts using seasonal produce and local suppliers. All the food will be nutritious and balanced, with a variety of options to cater to all dietary requirements.
If you have specific allergies, please get in touch to check if these can be catered for, as we cannot always avoid cross-contamination.

Travel & Transport
Guests are responsible for their own transport to and during the event.
This trip is only accessible by car; however, many of our attendees are more than happy to lift-share. Please feel free to ask in the Lift Share WhatsApp group if you require a lift or need to be collected from a nearby train station.
We will be driving to the start of the walks each day, but we will lift share in as few cars as possible.

Alice Keegan
Founder of The Adventure Girls Club & Mountain Leader
Alice founded the club in 2022 after years of feeling a bit out of place in the outdoor community. She wanted to create a softer anti-dote to the extreme, goal orientated ego-centric attitude to the outdoors. Alice is also a qualified mountain leader and loves sharing her love for the mountains with women who lack the confidence to go themselves.
Megan Endean
Mountain Leader
Megan is a Mountain Leader, currently based in the Midlands but grew up in Devon. Her hobby (obsession!?) with being outdoors started with her Bronze Duke of Edinburgh and she's never looked back since. She's passionate about improving accessibility to the outdoors, and aims to provide a safe and welcoming environment to all.
Fitness and ability
Here at The Adventure Girls Club, we try to make our events as inclusive as possible. However, due to the mountainous nature of this hiking trip, some experience with elevation and a good level of fitness are desirable. Our goal is to ensure everyone's safety and to provide all guests with the best possible experience.
To book onto this trip, you must:
- Be comfortable spending a full day outdoors in the mountains from 9am to 3pm.
- Have the ability to walk comfortably on narrow, exposed hiking paths, which are at times covered with loose rocks.
- Have a good head for heights.
- Have experience walking uphill, at a slow pace, for a couple of hours.
- Own appropriate kit for the mountains (waterproof coat and trousers, hiking boots, warm layers).
We always take it slow on our hikes and ensure no one gets left behind.
If you have any worries or concerns about if you are fit or experienced enough to come on the trip please email us hello@theadventuregirls.club and we can advise.
