Wilderness/bushcraft course
I am after something like a wilderness/survival/bushcraft weekend for a birthday present, something like ray mears does at woodlore.

Apart from mr mears, does anyone has any suggestions. Needs to be now more than about 1.5hrs from Essex Borders Thumbs Up

Tack

Took the kids to Really Wild Bushcraft (http://www.reallywildbushcraft.com/bushcraft-experiences.htm#wowo) at Wowo (sussex) last year and they learnt how to make fire.

Very enjoyable and seemed (to my untained eye) to be very well done.

Agree wholeheartedly. Roger at Bison offers a great weekend. Have been on a few of his courses and thoroughly recommend them.
