“Great views, interesting sites, good accommodation.”Dr Mansfield, UK
“Well organised as usual. A wonderful mix if steep escarpment, rolling farmland with plenty of trees and some super woodland sections. All this mixed with some lovely villages/small towns. I am already considering trails for next year. I really do not have a favourite section, as I thoroughly enjoyed the whole trip. THANK YOU FOR ANOTHER ENJOYABLE HOLIDAY.”Mr Richardson, UK
“Everything your Company did equalled or exceeded our expectations. I would definitely recommend Contours to any of my friends. Good on you people.”Mr Hitchman, Canada
“Despite every kind of weather imaginable...snow, rain, heavy wind, some sun...we did enjoy it.”Ms Millard, France
“The Cotswold Way is well marked. We enjoyed the distances travelled each day. And met many wonderful fellow hikers along the way.”Ms Ziperman, USA
“We were slightly nervous about doing the Cotswold Way in November but with a little luck from the weather it turned out to be amazing. With autumn colours enhancing the views and carpets of yellow leaves in the forests the scenery was stunning. The many pubs had roaring fires and pretty Cotswold villages were putting up Christmas lights and decorations. The only hazard was the mud! Fun at times but definitely slowed us down.”Mrs. Brain, UK
“It exceeded our expectations. It was excellent.”Mrs Barrett-Rendler, USA
