We’re thrilled to be teaming up once again with the fantastic Marmalade MTB for their Eastern Downs Escape. 

Taking place 3-6th June 2025, you’re invited to enjoy two days of twisting woodland trails, the undulating ridgeline of the South Downs Way and the mighty spectacle of the Long Man of Wilmington. 

After your adventures, you’ll then be welcomed to Saltmarsh Farmhouse, where you’ll be able to unwind and refuel in one of our cosy guest bedrooms 

This active retreat on the South Downs is aimed at the novice off-road cyclist and the regular beginner mountain biker looking for a sociable group activity. Your experienced and qualified leader will provide guidane on the core skills and fundamentals of mountain biking to maximise your safety and enjoyment during the two days.
