Book your walking holiday along King Offa's Dyke, from Chepstow to Prestatyn.
From £355 per person
During the 8th century, King Offa of Mercia ordered a great dyke to be built to mark the western boundary of his kingdom with Wales. Offa's Dyke Path follows the course of this ancient earthwork from Chepstow to Prestatyn, passing through scenery of great beauty and variety along the way.
The trail visits a succession of historic border towns and attractive villages including Monmouth, Hay-on-Wye and Welshpool. There is also plenty of historic interest along the trail, including Chepstow Castle, the ruin of Tintern Abbey and the imposing stronghold of White Castle, to name just a few.
Dogs are welcome on select routes along this trail. Look for the pawprint icon when choosing your holiday.
From £355 per person
This short break explores some of the best preserved stretches of Offa's Dyke, utilising a mixture of riverside paths, country lanes, Roman roads and green fields to provide a pleasant but varied walk.
Starting from Hay-on-Wye, a town famed for its bookshops, the trail follows the River Wye and traverses several hills before passing through the Victorian market town of Kington. The trail then meets with Offa's Dyke itself and runs through attractive woodland and upland pastures. The holiday then ends in the historical border town of Knighton against a dramatic mountain backdrop.
