Tintwistle and Reservoirs On this walk we visited some of the less famous reservoirs near Tintwistle using parts of the Pennine Bridleway, Upper and Lower Swineshaw Reservoirs and Walkerwood and Brushes Reservoirs. We set off with some trepidation from the small village of Tintwistle, due to the unfavourable weather reports, and were surprised to get

What a great week we had in Mijas!  The weather couldn’t have been better and we had some great walks, thanks to our guides Juan and William.  They were very impressed with our fitness level !  Apparently we got up those hills (and they were steep!) in half the time of any other clients they’d

We had a great, 9 mile walk on Tuesday along the coastline from Chewton Bunny to Mudeford Quay then got the little ferry over the Hengistbury Head where we had a lovely walk and coffee stop at the top of the hill with views!  We were grateful for part cloud cover to keep the temperature

What a merry band we were on Wednesday as we set off from Strawberry Hill towards Kew. The path towards Richmond has lots of interesting houses on both banks of the Thames and after a lunch break we continued our way and saw lots of rowing crews out on the river and a fox posing
