Self-guided Paths and Trails
Inn-to-Inn, Place-to-Place, call them what you will; if you like to walk independently, follow a continuous route, and move on to new accommodation each night, these are the walking holidays for you.
Footpath Holidays will book your bed and breakfast accommodation, transfer your luggage and provide all of the guidebooks, maps, route-finding information and planning services that you require, leaving you to free to enjoy the walking, the exhilarating scenery and the many wonderful sites of interest along the way.
Accommodation for our Self-guided Paths and Trails
We will arrange bed and breakfast accommodation in clean and comfortable family guesthouses, country inns and small hotels where a friendly welcome is guaranteed. All bedrooms will have ensuite bathroom, and each morning you will have the choice of a full English or continental breakfast.
Evening meals are not included so all accommodation will either be located close to an inn or restaurant which serves food in the evening, or provide evening meals in-house.
Occasionally a remote location, or lack of availability of suitable accommodation at the end of a walk stage, may make it necessary for us to either book you into one guesthouse or inn for more than one night, or to book you into accommodation which is more than 1 kilometre off-route. If this happens we will provide transport to transfer you between the walking route and your accommodation.
Self-guided Paths and Trails
Our Self-guided Paths and Trails are based on some of our favourite National Trails and Long Distance Paths in the south and south west of England. They cover the whole of the South West Way, a classic route which provides some of the most exhilarating coastal walking in the world; the world-famous Cotswold Way; the beautiful Thames Path; and the Wessex Ridgeway, a less well-known walk through the glorious countryside of Wiltshire and Dorset.
