We have a choice of 10 UK walking holidays (each with many variations) for 2007. These range from the gentle Vale of Lorton route which is 3-6 days in the quietest corner of the Lake District, through to the ever popular Hadrians Wall Walk or the classic Wainwright's Coast to Coast, 15-17 days across three National Parks. In addition to the full length trips, we offer a range of short breaks on each of these routes.

Also new for this year we are offering 3 brand new routes; The Northumberland Coast Way, The Cleveland Way and The Westmorland Way. Please use the links below to access more details.

Self Guided Walking Holidays

All of our holidays are self guided. We provide you with a detailed route description and/or guidebook, together with the maps for the area and you do the walking unaccompanied, at your own pace. All the accommodation will be booked ahead by us and we can transport your luggage to your next night's accommodation.

Inbuilt flexibility

Our holidays are designed to be flexible and can be tailored to suit your requirements. If you're looking for something different, or extra, from our holidays described here, give us a ring and we'll do our best to please! You can start on any day you like and we can arrange extra nights at any of the overnight stops allowing for rest days, or giving you more time to explore the locality. You can book part of a walk if you don't have the time to complete the entire distance, or if the weathers dreadful, or if you're feeling lazy! We can also give you a lift to the next overnight stop, if your walking within the Lorton Valley or North Lakes only.
