Off the beaten path walking in the landscapes of SW England
Walking holidays are an indulgence, slow travel at a natural rhythm. For our founder Alison walking is all about immersing yourself in the landscape, less the A to B of distance. England’s local footpaths are perfect for walking the land, discovering the rich histories & stories along the way.
