“Historical and scenic.”

Dr Hacking, Canada

“Particularly enjoyed Holy Island. Beautiful hotel room with iconic views.”

Ms Reid, Canada

“This was the first walk I ever did with Contours back in April 2010 (but it was then in the other direction), and I’ve wanted to revisit it for a while. It’s a stunning stretch of coastline with lots of things to see along the way. Definitely a good route to try for anyone new to long-distance walking, as it’s mainly flat and has very good waymarking.”

Mr Julyan, UK

“An amazing, fantastically organised and beautiful holiday. I cannot recommend the Northumbrian Coastline walk enough - and you Contours - thank you. Easy beautiful terrain. We were lucky with the weather which obviously made it more glorious. We only got lost twice”

Mrs Harris, UK

“I had some really nice, large rooms this trip and the quality was very good throughout. If that was down to your booker, thank you very much (otherwise I just got lucky!)”

Mr Garlick, UK

“It was a wonderful holiday, amazing scenery, and even good weather! The walk was lovely, beautiful beaches, interesting villages, castles, wildlife….All the arrangements went smoothly and all the accommodation was of a high standard. Hope to do another one next year!”

Prof Browning, UK

“Overall, we’ve loved the walk. It has really allowed us to de-stress and the views have been fantastic. Everyone we’ve interacted with has been really friendly and helpful.”

Mr Fleetwood, UK

“Easy walking along a well signed route. The coastal walking and views are excellent. The beaches are long and virtually empty. The villages and coastal towns are welcoming and have good places to eat. We continue to enjoy excellent service from you as we have done down the years - thankyou.”

Mr Welford, UK

“Possibly our best ever British walking holiday. All the arrangements made by Contours worked like clockwork and the accommodation was excellent.”
