🐾 Could running your own dog training retreat be more achievable than you think?
If you’ve ever considered organising your own residential training holiday but wondered whether the costs would make it worthwhile, here’s something to think about.
At Mid Wales Holidays, our exclusive venue hire is £900 per day.
But that’s not just for somewhere to train your dogs. It includes:
🌳 15 acres of private training grounds, including woodland, fields and water
🏡 Accommodation for up to 13 people across two cottages and our Ysgubor studio
🚐 Two additional caravans sleeping up to four, plus electric hook-ups and camping options
🐕 Indoor and covered teaching spaces, training facilities and equipment
Here’s one way the numbers could work.
With 10 paying handlers, your venue cost is just £90 per handler per day.
You can then structure your training fees and accommodation packages around your own business, whether that’s a residential training holiday, a weekend workshop or a longer retreat.
Of course, you’ll need to factor in your own training fees, travel and other expenses, but it shows how the venue cost can be shared across a group rather than absorbed by you alone.
We’ve just updated our 2027 Venue Hire Brochure with more ideas on how trainers can structure their events and make the most of the facilities and accommodation.

Your clients. Your training. Your retreat.
