I contacted Walk the Trail less than two weeks before my trip to England and even with such a short time frame they organized a walking trip for me along the Coast Path that was amazing!

Recently I walked the Pembrokeshire Coast Path with Walk the Trail. Linda and the team are wonderful to deal with, I have done the South West Coast Path with WTT as well, each time you feel you are the only customer, the service is very personalised. The PCP is a hidden gem, I wasn't even aware of it until I did the SWCP with WTT. On my 14 day PCP walk unfortunately the weather stopped me from doing most of 3 days, the other 11 days were glorious, with only 2 heavy showers. The towns and villages along the way are lovely and on quite a few legs there are some great coffee/food stops. On several legs, I felt like I was the luckiest person alive. Linda and the team are extremely aware of any looming danger and I have had various phone calls and emails re inclement weather. One really good feature of WTT is coloured maps with B&B locations then very easy to find. Following the PCP, I did another walk, everything is on an app, so if you lose your phone, you are in trouble! I made a paper copy of all the relevant info and fortunately I didn't lose my phone. I have done many walks in UK and Europe with various companies, all have been great, but WTT is outstanding, and the Pembrokeshire Coast Path really is a hidden gem!

Thank you Linda and Mike for another memorable holiday ensuring we enjoyed the thrills and delights of the SWCP.. As always your organisation is first class and your choice of accommodation is brilliant. All the accommodation stops were different, all had their own special charm and excellent quality. At the end of a long days walk, sometimes in inclement weather we know we will have a warm welcome at our destination where we can refresh and recharge. the location of all the stops was superbly placed . Thank you for the extra thought and planning you put into every trip. The baggage transfer works amazingly well. It is so comforting to know you are always a phone call away and you always pick up the phone when we call. We look forward to completing the SWCP it may take another 3 or 4 trips always something special to look forward to. Thank you again. . Best wishes Marion and Rose

Perfect organization! The trip planning was fantastic, and the accommodations were very well chosen. Even the luggage transport on our hiking trip worked without a hitch. Overall, excellent communication from booking to the last day of the trip! I highly recommend Linda and her team.

We have been using Walk The Trail now every year since 2016, which should serve as a recommendation in its own right. We have completed the SWCP, the Two Moors, and are now walking the Coast-to-Coast with them. Our experience with WTT has been flawless. This year I had the misfortune to break my ankle coming down from Kidsty Pike and WTT responded brilliantly, arranging for me to be transported between the last two locations by the baggage company, and also sorting out extra accomodation for my wife at short notice when she drove up to collect us. Thoroughly recommended.

In the last year an a half we have covered 5 sections of the SWCP (Minehead to Falmouth) and thoroughly enjoyed it, with every section holding its own surprises, and always with astounding scenery. Walk the Trail have been with us all the way. They made sure all the logistics worked like clockwork: from lovely accomodations (close to the path) with friendly hosts, to efficient taxi transfers and faultless luggage transport. However, their greatest asset is probably their very prompt and personal way of communicating, with unbelievably fast response times and always happy to answer any question and share any relevant information about the particular region. It also gave us the safe feeling that in the unlikely event that should anything go wrong they would be there to assist us. We will certainly book with them again.

Paul Oldfield

Friendly and efficient service. Prompt and sensible responses to enquiries. Any niggles caused by external influences quickly resolved. Customer wishes always taken into account and sound advice given on the art of the possible. Luggage pick up and delivery worked very smoothly and seemlessly. Accommodation selected was spot on for my needs. Thoroughly recommended.

Barry Law

WTT has always been spot on with the organisation of all our trips. I would highly recommend using them on any trails.

Meg Crager

Mike and Linda planned the perfect walk for me, from St. Ives to Falmouth. Their knowledge of the region and willingness to accommodate my preferences were great! The book, maps and GPS tracks they provided made navigating super easy. I enjoyed the lovely guest houses they reserved for me, and kind hosts. The trail is absolutely gorgeous and the people I met were welcoming and friendly. I look forward to doing another section of the trail next Spring. I highly recommend Walk The Trail for trip planning.

C Hance

A well organised and thoroughly enjoyable trip organised by Walk the Trail. The accommodation was good, the route guidance very useful and the support provided first class. I would definitely recommend Walk the Trail for organising walking trips.

Nazanin Shirani

We have been walking the South West Coastal path with Walk the Trail for over a decade and cannot praise them enough. They have adjusted and adapted our walks for the last 4 years to include our (now) 5 year old daughter and they think of everything to keep her happy, from the best accomodation, to where we can stop and see things she might like. The week we spend walking using the itenary the team creates for us is the best week of the year for all of us and we can't wait to get back out next summer. Thank you to the whole team and I'll be in touch with dates for 2025 shortly!

Russell Wate

Highly Recommend the company Walk the Trail Linda, Mike and the team at Walk the trail are quite frankly brilliant. We had a very tricky section of the SWCP (Portloe-Exmouth) to negotiate with a number of river crossings to get across or around and at times lack of accommodation on or nearby the trail. This didn't faze the Walk the trail team and they put together a great trip that suited us perfectly and worked out perfectly. I am not sure other companies are able to provide a bespoke trip as well as them. I would highly recommend Walk the Trail to anyone thinking about a self guided walking tour on any of the tours that they are offering the personal service is excellent.

Roger Michael Thomson

We Recommend WTT Our walk from Minehead to Clovelly on the SW Coastal Path was well organised and went like clockwork. Linda and the team at WTT were always prompt and helpful with any queries we had. The accommodation was good and the baggage transfers went without a hitch.

Susanne and Ron

Perfectly organized. They really thought along with us, which resulted in a very good itinerary, with good information about travelling to and from the SWCP. Everything was perfectly organized and the B&B's/hotels were great. Taxi and luggage transfer were perfectly on time. If you choose for luggage transfer: the bags really need to be ready by 9 am! (Sometimes breakfast is at 8.30 or 9. So if you want to brush your teeth after breakfast, you have to keep your toothbrush with you!)

Beverly Young

Minehead to Bude, May 2024: Superb What an incredible walk of the first 125 miles of the SWCP. Though the Walk the Trail team couldn't control the weather - most of which was very good - they did arrange for great lodging (some were superb) and were always prompt in responding to us. We especially appreciated having the All Trails subscription and the daily walks plotted for us. Not that you can get lost on the SWCP, but it was nice to know how much further we had to go! And, of course, the Trailblazer guide book was equally helpful. Linda suggested some days off in great locations (don't miss Clovelly) and our 70+ year old bodies appreciated those. We highly recommend Walk the Trail.

Julie Margaret Langdon

Zennor to Coverack We have just returned from walking from Zennor to Coverack. A trip organised by Linda and her team at Walk the Trail. It was first rate in every way. Efficient, kind organisation, excellent hosts and all the taxis arrived as planned. The pre walk details were very good. Even the weather obliged. This was our second year with WTT and we will certainly be using them again. I can not recommend them highly enough

Brigitte Patenaude

What an Adventure! We recently returned from the UK where we spent 12 days in Cornwall, walking the South West Coast Path. Since it was our first time in the area doing this kind of trip, we had a lot of questions. We spent some time researching and reaching out to the various companies specializing in this kind of trip to help us plan. We settled on Walk the Trail because they responded quickly, provided great suggestions, had reasonable rates and had great reviews. We were thoroughly pleased with our choice. The suggested itinerary was perfect. The trail tools provided were very useful and accurate. The accommodations selected were well located, super clean, friendly and had amazing breakfasts. Our luggage was picked up and delivered every day without a hitch. Schedules for ferries were helpful and a booking for a taxi went smoothly. It was great to arrive at our location each afternoon, tired from walking and being able to simply check in to each accommodation by simply giving your name and to see our luggage waiting for us. Linda and the team at Walk the Trail did a fantastic job. While we were there, there were some train disruptions due to union activity. Even though our walking trip had ended, Linda sent us an email with alternate suggestions to help us get to our next destination by bus. She really went above and beyond. We would not hesitate to work with Linda and the team at Walk the Trail in the future.

Hans Fässler

Wonderful! Marvelous! Magnificent! Superb! Sublime! Anyone for more adjectives? We would like to say thank you. We had a wonderful time on the coastal path. The weather was thoroughly un-English and perfect: no rain at all and agreeable temperatures. All the accomodation was pleasant, the landlords/ladies likeable and the baggage transfers worked like a Swiss clockword (;-). Not to mention the admirable «forgotten-shoes-services»: I had left them in a B&B in Newquay and Walk the Trail saw to it that they were sent to the next accommodation but one. And the landscape, the coastline, the sandy beaches, the seals, the occasional encounters with fellow hikers – everything was magnificent! We will certainly recommend your tour to friends and acquaintances.

Holiday went smoothly, accommodation was ok.

Shirley Scott

Great communication and organisation. Loved it. Want to do another leg of the South West Coast Path with Walk the Trail in 2022

Trusted Customer

Perfectly Organised A great holiday arranged by Walk the Trail. All accommodation, and luggage transfers worked perfectly. The holiday pack was easy to understand and I will definitely use them again.

Bob

Friendly and efficient. Our accommodation on the South West Coast Path was organised by Linda at relatively short notice, saving us a lot of difficulty in trying to find it ourselves as we have done in the past. Pre-departure information was extensive and helpful. Impressively we were warned by email of impending severe weather conditions in order to ensure our safety - over and above any normal efficient service.

Trusted Customer

They could not have been more helpful. The trip was originally arranged for a time when we were still in lockdown. WTT rearranged the trip for us - nothing was too much trouble, despite the fact some of their original accommodation partners were not open/not taking booking for our group of 10 guests I would definitely use them again and would highly recommend them to others. I have used other organisations in the past and these certainly rate amongst the best

Andrew & Janet Longden

Flexible, helpful, local… and good value. A superb trip - faultless luggage transfers and some of the very best B&B’s/small hotels, all of which were on or close to the trail.

Walter Peake

Walk the Trail doe an absolutely proper job, with every booking! I appreciate all of the clear communication and helpful input

Martin Johnson

Walk the Trail do the hard bit, all we have to do is walk and enjoy! This booking covered the last section of the South West Costal Path and was far from straight forward. We had the Firing Ranges which are only open for walkers at certain times of the week, the mileage we needed to cover on the path would not have taken us a full week and, to some extent, involved consideration in planning the penultimate leg. It was a case of planning the two sections in tandem. With the expert help of Walk the Trail and a few suggestions from us, we arrived at a perfect arrangement. As a final treat, Walk the Trail have said they 'want to make sure we get you somewhere rather amazing for you to celebrate the completion of the Path'. This won't be the end of our association with WtT as we intend to do it all again. It's a beautiful well signposted path, ever changing scenery and landscape. With well over 600 miles it's not something one could ever get bored with!

Walter Peake

The Best! The website is the best I've used, and the folks at Walk the Trail alwYs go above and beyond to assist with bookings.

Steve Blease

Excellent! We ARE using them again. They're very good.

Many thanks for all the team's organisation and efforts. My wife and I had a superb walking holiday from Penzance to Falmouth in June 2017. You booked us into some superb places to stay (Boak House, Coverack; Victoria Inn at Perranuthcoe to name but two) and would have no hesitation to use yoe guys again!

As already mentionned by Walt and Rachel, we we're very pleased with the way Walk the Trail made all the arrangements for our group. Every morning, we started our walk without being worried about anything. We knew there was a good shower and a soft bed waiting for us at the end of the day. We've really appreciated your concern about our wellbeing during our trip and the arrangements you made for us to go and see some ancient sites. We would like to thank you again for your good services and we can only advise everyone who wants to do a walking holiday in Cornwall to contact you.

Our time in Cornwall truly felt like a holiday because the Walk the Trail team took care of all our accommodation, luggage transfers, and walking plans. Walk the Trail removed all the pesky logistics of holiday planning and left us free to enjoy ourselves with no concern. Thank you very much for all your work!

I just can't say enough about the quality of service and the attention given to every detail by Mike, Linda, and Derek. Our group included 13 walkers with varied interests and experience levels. Walk the Trail managed all of our accommodation bookings and reliably moved our bags every day. We could never have made all of the arrangements and had such a worry-free trip without the efforts by and clear communication with Walk The Trail. We I particularly appreciated their telephone calls and advance work related to specific accommodations or planning for meals at various locations, and it was clear that we were being well looked after along the way. I don't know when I'll walk in Cornwall again, but when I do...I will certainly rely on Walk the Trail for baggage transfer and accommodation booking.
