England

England 's North Country is famous for the beauty of its scenery. Here you will find the stunning lake and mountain scenery of the Lake District, the rich green valleys and dry-stone walls of the Yorkshire Dales, the rolling heather moorland of the North York Moors, the craggy limestone dales and gritstone moors of the Peak District, the old Roman frontier of Hadrian's Wall and the golden beaches and imposing castles of Northumberland's unspoilt coastline. We offer the largest selection of walking holidays in the north of England . These range from classic trails like Hadrian's Wall Path , Wainwright's Coast to Coast Walk, Cumbria Way, Dales Way, Cleveland Way and Herriot Way to little-known gems like Northumberland's Coast of Castles, Westmorland Way, Swale Way, White Peak Way, Yorkshire Wolds Way and Lady Anne's Way .

The countryside of South of England is noted for its great variety. It ranges from the rocky coastlines of Cornwall, Devon and Dorset to the beaches, dunes and saltings of the Norfolk coast, and from the wild expanses of Dartmoor and Exmoor to the neat fields and pretty villages of the Cotswolds.

Our programme of hiking tours in the South of England include the Isle of Wight Coast Path , Cotswold Way , Two Moors Way , Dartmoor Way , Tarka Trail , Mendip Way , North Downs Way , Thames Path , Cross-Cotswold Path , Peddars Way and Norfolk Coast Path , Ridgeway , South Downs Way , Saints' Way , a handful of trails exploring the Cotswolds and the South West Coast Path , the spectacular National Trail around the coastlines of Devon, Cornwall, Dorset and Somerset. For 2007 we've added Shakespeare's Way, an exciting new trail that follows the route the poet may have taken on his journeys between his home in Stratford-upon-Avon and the Globe Theatre in London, where most of his plays were first performed to public acclaim.
