Not too long now and the gardens (and countryside) of South West England will be bursting with life and colour. Summer is around the corner, and we can't wait for the long, warm days of walking and hiking through villages, fields and woodlands ☀️

Wild garlic is everywhere on forest floors at the moment, and the delicate white blooms are just starting to emerge, creating a wonderful tapestry of green and white. Even more reason to be out and about in the countryside of South West England.

Walking along quiet country lanes, under blue skies. Past wonderful thatched cottages and daffodils nodding gently in the breeze. We love walking these routes ourselves and sharing them with our guests.

Quiet moments from this morning down by river. Just the sound of water and echoing birdsong. This is what walking and hiking means to us. The chance to slow our natural pace and feel a sense of freedom.

The pace of walking allows time for us to observe the world, to enliven our senses with the sights and sounds of nature, to feel free, and engage with 1000s of years of human history.

It’s a simple pleasure that’s richly rewarding.

Tranquil moments from one of the trails in our portfolio of Cotswolds walking and hiking holidays. Signs of spring were everywhere, most noticeably in the presence of lambs in so many of the fields we walked through 🐑
