What Others Say

South West Coastal Path: St Ives to Penzance

The Cornwall Coastal Path is very scenic and wonderful. It is strenuous along some of the sections, so you need to be aware. We had great sunny weather throughout our walk which was a bonus. Although I had the route notes and map, I used my phone to follow our progress and direction on Google maps. Google maps shows the path quite well and was very helpful finding our accommodation. Accommodation was very good, hosts were very pleasant and helpful.

Coast to Coast Guided Explorer - 17 Days

Our guided 17 day coast to coast trip was above and beyond all my expectations. Our guide, John, was funny, knowledgeable and incredibly supportive. The accommodation was comfy, warm as were the meals. The hiking was doable - some days a bit slower than others with huge ups and downs to conquer. All worth it for the views.

Scotland by Bike and Boat

Wonderful sail and cycle trip around the Inner Hebrides. Great guides in Martin and Ana who kept us energised and were full of fun.

Dorset & the Jurassic Coast Walk

The B&B's that you arranged had very nice and helpful hosts….. It was a great vacation. The scenery was terrific. We've done seven long distance hikes in the U.K. and we appreciate the work that you and your team put in to make this one special.

J PainterNew York, USA

West Highland Way - 10 Days

The overall organisation was high quality and ensured all luggage was picked up and delivered on time. This meant full attention could be paid to planning and completing each day’s walk. Accommodation well located to the walk ensuring efficiency which was much appreciated.

This classic Coast to Coast walking route across England was originated and described by Alfred Wainwright, author of a well-known series of mountain-walking guidebooks on the Lake District. The walk starts on the Irish Sea coast of Cumbria near the huge red sandstone cliffs of St. Bees Head. You cross three National Parks before reaching the North Sea at the pretty fishing village of Robin Hood’s Bay on the rocky coastline of the North York Moors. - Find comprehensive self-guided and guided walking tours with Walkers' Britain: https://www.walkersbritain.co.uk/united-kingdom/coast-to-coast-walk Tradition has it that you dip your boots in the Irish Sea and take a pebble to deposit in the North Sea at the end of your Coast to Coast walk. That should confuse geologists a few thousand years hence. The first few days take you over some of the most rugged and beautiful terrain of the Lake District by way of the idyllic lakeland valleys of Borrowdale, Grasmere (Wordsworth lived here) and Patterdale, close to Ullswater Lake. You pass Helvellyn, England’s most popular mountain, and the mountain oddly named High Street, along which the Roman Legions marched on their way to Hadrian’s Wall. After leaving the Lake District you cross a gentler landscape round Shap and Orton. Beyond the quaint market town of Kirkby Stephen you enter the Yorkshire Dales National Park. Two days are then spent walking through the long valley of Swaledale, with its dry stone walls and unspoilt villages. You reach the historic town of Richmond with cobbled streets, sloping market square and famous castle perched above the River Swale. Beyond the arable farmland of the Vale of York, you ascend onto the heather moorlands of the North York Moors, a region of long vistas and easy walking. After crossing the wooded valley of Eskdale you reach the dramatic cliffs of the North Sea Coast. The last few miles of the Coast to Coast walk follow the scenic clifftop path to the red-roofed village of Robin Hood’s Bay. With an extra night here, you can relax on the beach or visit nearby Whitby with its ruined abbey (associated with the Dracula legend) and its Captain Cook Museum. - Find comprehensive self-guided and guided walking tours with Walkers' Britain: https://www.walkersbritain.co.uk/united-kingdom/coast-to-coast-walk #coasttocoast #wainwrightsway #england
