Family Break To Bristol Zoo Project
Win a spring wellness break near Bristol
Spring is here and you could be treating yourself to a relaxing and adventure-filled break for two in the Mendip Hills, just outside Bristol. Picture peaceful countryside, open skies, and a lineup of activities that blend restful moments with a touch of outdoor excitement. This is more than a prize; it's a chance to slow down, recharge and rediscover the joy of time away with someone special, surrounded by green landscapes, fresh air and the scent of wildflowers.
What is the prize? A rural wellness escape for two that brings together rest, nature and fun. It includes an overnight stay for two at Mad Swans Eco Cabin, with breakfast the following morning and your choice of activity – pick from options like pickleball, padel, golf, the driving range or putting. You’ll also enjoy two adventurous activities at Mendip Activity Centre, letting you choose from a range of outdoor experiences nestled in the heart of the Mendips. Finally, you’ll receive entry for two to Yeo Valley Organic Garden, plus lunch at the Garden Cafe. To make this experience extra special, you’ll also take home a copy of the Yeo Valley Mendips Walks book, one product of your choice from the Garden Fridge shop, and a complimentary cool bag to carry your memories home.
Travel between prize locations is not included, so you’ll be a little self‑driven and totally free to map out your own Mendip adventure. The Mendips offer rolling lanes, dramatic viewpoints, farmer’s markets, and quaint villages, all just a short drive from the city bustle. You can tailor the itinerary to suit your mood—whether you want a peaceful morning surrounded by birdsong, an energetic afternoon in the outdoors, or a leisurely stroll followed by a delicious lunch in a garden setting. The whole experience is designed to be flexible, giving you space to breathe, unplug, and reconnect with the people you love in a setting that feels wonderfully timeless.

The prize is ideal for couples, friends, or family members who enjoy a mix of relaxation and light adventure, and who want to experience the beauty of the Bristol region in a special, feel-good way.
Who is this for? Anyone aged 18 or over who loves a bit of countryside, a touch of wellness, and a chance to enjoy a memorable break with a friend or loved one. The prize celebrates the best of the Bristol region, from tranquil gardens to outdoor escapades and tasty lunches in scenic settings.
