The April walking break in Dorset was a big success - we were warmly welcomed by the HQ staff and very well looked after throughout our stay. They were receptive to our needs and willing to accommodate our preferences to the programme, adding extra walks and arranging for us to join local groups. Everyone was friendly and welcoming and we were blessed with beautiful Spring sunshine and flowers, and blown away by the beautiful, iconic Dorset views. The various opportunities to reward our daily efforts with delicious food and drink in the evenings proved a bonus! Don’t hesitate to book yourself on one of these breaks - you won’t regret it!
I loved the walks - all at the right pace and the guides know their stuff. The Dinosaur footprints and Jurassic geology will stay with me forever. I will be booking the mindful break next!
