We design independent walks that enable the visitor to sample the countryside and the history of Britain. Our routes bring alive the descriptions of writers like William Wordsworth, Thomas Hardy, Boswell and Johnson. You may visit places where Roman legions marched and fierce battles were waged, perhaps walking on an ancient cattle drover's route over the hills to market. On every tour there is at least in part, great historical interest as well as natural beauty. Most but not all of the walks, follow at least in part, sections of the reasonably well maintained long distance paths or National Trails whose concept and history has origins in the Great Trespass Movement of the 1930s. Dramatic scenery, castles, historic churches nestled amongst wild flowers, sleepy villages, sunshine and rain: these are all integral parts of walking in Britain. Please
Note: If your planned dates of travel coincide with UK 2010 bank holiday
weekends on 2 Apr-5 Apr, 1-3 May, 29-31 May or 28-30 Aug, it may be necessary
to extend your trip in order to secure accommodation. During these periods
many hotels will not accept bookings for just one night. If this effects your holiday Sherpa will
contact you immediately on receipt of your booking form to discuss any
necessary amendments.

We are proud to present our seventeenth year of walking holidays in our homeland, Britain.
The walks offer an eclectic mix of rocky coastline, rolling hillsides and/or craggy mountains. Our aim is to
include all the elements that make up this green and pleasant isle,
including perhaps the opportunity to visit a castle, some gardens, have a
cream tea, a great pint of ale or even an armful of fish 'n' chips wrapped
in paper!
