“Just a quick note that our Cleveland Way walk booked through Contours was absolutely great, assisted by some great weather it must be said.”Mr Flather, UK
“Well organised, good accommodation and places to eat nearby. Good taxi transfers. Stunning scenery. I enjoyed it all for different reasons. Stages 1 & 2 easy walking with good views, stage 3 more challenging but again some great views made it worthwhile.”Dr Bowman, UK
“Lots of variety with moors and coast. All ran smoothly.”Mrs Cartledge, UK
“The holiday far exceeded my expectations. The accommodation was of the highest standard, the transfers were seamless and everyone involved from the accommodation staff and owners to the taxi drivers were extremely friendly and helpful. An extremely well planned and thought out holiday. I would recommend Contours Holidays and in particular, The Cleveland Way, to anyone. I will be planning another walk with Contours Walking Holidays shortly.”Mr Worman, UK
“Everything went to plan, even the weather!”Mr Newton, UK
“9 days of wonderful views and excellent B&Bs. We had a wonderful walk. Met interesting people on the trail and stayed in great places. Thanks to all the team for the perfect organisation. All taxi firms were excellent too.”Mr Darwen, UK
“Yes this was a great walk which I really enjoyed particularly the contrast between the moorland of the first few days and the coast thereafter. I really enjoyed it all and would do it all again although I might book an additional day in Scarborough next time to see round the town more. I think this holiday has something for everyone whatever type of walker you are.”Mr Madge, UK
“Four days good walking, with rain on one day only! Overall excellent. The Cleveland Way is an excellent walk. It can be demanding and the geography means accommodation can be widely spaced, making for some long sections. I've walked with Contours on five long distance walks now and have always been impressed by your professional efficiency.”Revd Moorhouse, UK
“The weather was very good apart from the last morning which made the whole walk stunning.”Mrs Edwards, UK
