Trail Outdoor Leisure

We've been going with them for years and the walking is always good, the Dales route was lovely this time. Booking the deposit took a while though, it was nearly three weeks before they confirmed our place. Once we were on the trail it was all fine.

The guide on our Lakes weekend knew every path and kept an eye on everyone in the group, even the slower ones at the back. We've been on a few of these over the years and this is the one we'd pick again, the routes were well chosen and we never felt lost.

We needed something a bit more active than a beach break, as my partner has been training for a trek and wanted real hills to practise on. I'd done a few guided trips before so I knew what to look for in the route and the accommodation. This one hit the mark, with the daily distances about right and the huts clean and warm. The leaders gave us time to stop and take photos without rushing us along.

I needed a proper hill trip after my last one fell through, and I know the area well. The route was sensible and the guide knew the weather patterns. Accommodation was warm, the food was filling and the walking pace was right for me.

Compared with the two other operators I looked at for the same area, this was the best value by a clear margin. The inns were comfortable and the leader was really helpful with suggestions for the next day. It saved us a fair bit on the total cost.

Took ages to get a reply after I sent my booking form, nearly four days. Then the payment link kept timing out on my phone. Gave up and paid on my laptop instead.

Why we needed it was simple, we wanted a cheap way to get out of the house for a few days without spending a fortune. This did the job. The price per night was well below the other walking holidays I'd checked, and the packed lunches were filling. Booking was simple and the confirmation came straight away.

I'd only ever booked walking holidays through a big agency before, so this was my first time going direct. Compared to that, the site was easier to use and the price was a bit lower for the same nights. The welcome pack arrived by email the day after I paid, which was quick. The trip itself was fine, though the group dinner was smaller than the photos suggested.

The Lakes trip is the one to go for, the guides know the fells and the routes are well chosen. I've been on three of their trips now and each one has been solid. The inns are comfortable and the packed lunches are decent. Price is fair for the area.

This is the best guided trip I've done in Scotland, and I've done a fair few over the years. The guide knew every bothy and every bit of local history along the way. Pricing is fair for what you get, and the transfers from the station ran spot on. The group was a good size and everyone got on well.

Paid less than half of what the other walking operators wanted for the same route in the Brecon Beacons, which is what got us to book in the first place. The guide was friendly and knew the paths well, and the accommodation was clean and basic, which is all we wanted. We'd happily book again, it's hard to beat the money for what you get.

We booked the five day coast path trip for a long weekend, and I've done a fair few of these so I know what a good one looks like. The walking was lovely and the pace suited our group. The only thing I'd flag is that the luggage transfer was a bit late on day two, so we had to wait around in the rain for twenty minutes before the bags turned up. Otherwise it ran very well.

Compared with the coach outfit we used for years, this is a much more relaxed way to see the hills. The guides here know the paths properly and we've booked with them three times now. Trips run on time and the group sizes stay small, which suits us.

Compared to the big agencies I'd looked at, this was far cheaper for the same trail and the booking was much simpler. The transfer back to the station was a bit late on the last day, which was annoying. Otherwise I'd go again.

We booked the two night dales weekend, mainly because the price was lower than the other companies I'd priced up. Our bags were moved between the inns without any fuss. The route was a bit more road walking than I'd expected, which was a small letdown for my knees.

We needed a break that wasn't a city weekend or a full camping trip, so I went looking for something in between. I looked at three or four other companies first and this one had the clearest itinerary. The walks were the right length for our kids, and the inn we stayed in was warm and the food was good. Everything ran as described.

Booked the two night dales weekend and it came in well under what the other walking companies were asking for something similar. Booking was simple, I filled in one form and had confirmation the same day. The route was lovely, mostly good paths with a bit of mud in places, and the guide was happy to adjust the pace when my knee was giving me bother. Good value all round for the money.

I've done a lot of walking holidays so I was looking for a particular kind of trail, and this one was a bit rougher than the description suggested. Some of the path was overgrown and a few stiles were hard to get over. The guide did his best to keep us on track and the rooms were fine, but I'd have liked a heads up about the condition of the path before booking.

We booked the three day coast trip with a group of friends, and I'd been on enough of these to know what to expect. The route was well planned, with the right mix of cliffs and beaches. Accommodation was simple but clean, and the leader sorted out a last minute change to the route when the weather turned.
