The hut has toilets, showers, power, bunks, cooking facilities, fresh drinking water. It may not have signal at all on some networks. It may or may not have WiFi. There aren’t big shops nearby. We will have to bring everything with us.
We'll figure out all plans the night before in the hut.
Key:
Normal text: things you definitely need.
Italic: optional things you might like to have.
If you’re hoping to climb, you’ll need your own gear - there isn’t anywhere to hire it. At a minimum, you’ll need:
Really helpful things to have, even if you’re not leading
If you have any of these things, bring them:
If you're a trad leader, you should know what to bring (everything!).
The weather and time of year is important to think about, but this is the British Isles, we have to plan for all weather at all times of year.
There is often a walk to any climbing, maybe even a bit of a hike. It’s good to be equipped in case we’re outside longer than expected.
Almost all meals are included in the trip price, and will be tailored to your dietary requirements - specifically:
We already have your dietary requirements from the signup form, and everyone will be catered for. If the chefs on this trip have any questions or queries, they'll be in touch directly.

If you are the first one there, or likely to be - please message The Clan directly for info of how to get inside.
We have the entire hut to ourselves and don't segregate based on perceived differences. Put your things on a bunk to reserve it for you.
Got any questions? Suggestions? Not sure if something you have is suitable? Ask in the group chat and we’ll reply super quickly - always happy to clarify things.
