What we do

What we do

It's probably clear by now that we provide Self Guided Walking Holidays!


We don't provide any other services but we do spend a lot of time providing general tourist information and will always give free help and advice to anyone who contacts us with questions about walking in the region... whether they book with us or not.  We are a group of walkers and as such we are always ready to help other walkers who are stuck and need our expertise.


As we have grown larger we have been able to allocate staff time to assist in supporting management of the walking routes and lobby work to represent the wider walking community. We currently have staff represented on, or supporting, the work of the following management and interest groups:


The Coleridge Way Steering Group for promotion and maintenance of The Coleridge Way


The Cornwall Countryside Access Forum protecting access for walkers across all paths in Cornwall


The South West Coast Path Association for promotion and maintenance of The South West Coast Path


Exmoor National Park and Exmoor Tourism Association for promotion of walking in Exmoor National Park


Working with the Mendip Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty on the relaunch of The Mendip Way


Working with Visit Britain, Visit Cornwall, Visit Devon, Visit Somerset and Visit Wales on promotion of those regions to walkers.
