We had a fantastic sculling camp at our little Bungalow on Hamhaugh Island. Good weather (most of the time), lots of sculling, a few newbies (well done), loads of swimming (to improve the blood circulation), some capsizing (always with style), a visit to the pub, a BBQ and the most important thing, loads of fun.
