Peak District Traveller Reviews

Village to village walking with beautiful countryside, small villages and gorgeous vistas.

On Foot Holidays provided excellent planning, lodging and transport of baggage. The combination of written route descriptions and GPS tracking with routes preinstalled made for error free wayfinding. Our overnight towns were charming.

Our holiday began at the southern tip of the Peak District and took us across dales, over high moors and along quiet grassy paths as well as well-trafficked, paved and sometimes eroded ridges. We spent a week following a route which had been planned for us, but we made various adjustments and took three different buses to shorten the full distance to walk. We stayed at a b & b, two hotels and an inn aptly named the Rambler Inn at Edale.

Once you have chosen your holiday from a range of British and continental options, On Foot Holidays provide an itinerary and detailed route-finding in a pack. In our case they included the two Ordnance Survey Outdoor Leisure maps of the Peak District. They also include public transport details relating to the start and finish of our holiday - Matlock and Edale in our case plus bus times for optional travel within the area. They also provide the phone number of a local person who can be contacted .in case of an emergency. Last but not least, they provide a luggage service to your onward destination so that you only have to carry a day-pack.
