Client Feedback

  • Many thanks for your excellent service. We were extremely happy with all our stop-overs, making it very difficult to differentiate with a points score. We would recommend any of them to anyone staying over in that particular place.

  • Our holiday/Cleveland Way walk went extremely well. We found all the accommodation to be of a good standard with helpful and friendly service all round. Our bags appeared mysteriously every day in the right place! The walk itself was wonderful, full of interest, changing landscape and at the same time quite a challenge in places. Luckily we were still able to cope with the inclines both up and down along the way! All in all, however, a very enjoyable five days’ walking and my friend and I were extremely lucky once more with dry and mostly sunny weather!

  • "I am delighted to be able to reply with lots of positive feelings following the walk I recently completed on the Yorkshire Heritage Coast. My companion and I were incredibly lucky with outstanding October weather and I know that this does of course, make a difference to the overall enjoyment of such an outdoor pursuit. We appreciated it hugely and the result was uplifting and we managed the ups and downs along the cliffs and between headlands without too much difficulty. We found the guest houses to be of a very good standard overall as well as being conveniently located. We were given a warm welcome at the end of each day's walk and were very well looked after. Delicious breakfasts and luggage always there to greet us! We also enjoyed the local history and points of interest along the way - so all in all a thoroughly memorable few days. We hope to complete the Cleveland Way on another occasion and feel very happy to look into further walks/challenges in the future. Thank you for a well organised holiday."
