NEW YORK, NY (11/2013) On
Foot Holidays, the company that stands out for its self-guided walking tours
all around Europe, offers an excellent option to discover Southwest England.
Walk to hidden and delightful spots of the most English counties of the region:
Wardour Castle, Saxon Shaftesbury, Cranborne Chase, Milton Abbas, The Cerne
Giant, Evershot, Bridport and Lyme Regis.
South West England (Dorset - In the footsteps of Thomas Hardy). This seven-night journey is considered of
medium difficulty to walk, with four and half to six and a half hours of walk
per day. The tour starts in the beautiful cathedral city of Salisbury and ends
in the fishing village of Lyme Regis, where you will be able to relax and have
a platter of fresh seafood in the so called “Pearl of Dorset”. Created by
locals of the region, the route ensures that countryside is varied with plenty
of cultural interest on the way. Walk the romantic ruins of Old Wardour Castle,
the Saxon hilltop town of Shaftesbury and picturesque Gold Hill. Explore the
tiniest and most concealed streets of quintessentially English villages and
enjoy our trails with gently rolling landscapes as backdrops, such as the old
royal hunting estate of Cranborne Chase, prehistoric Hambledon Hill and the
perfectly designed village, Milton Abbas. Characterized by its richness in
geological history, the route will take you to the emblematic World Heritage
Site: the Jurassic Coast, and guide you up the Golden Cap clifftop, with its
far-reaching sea views.
The eating and drinking in
this region will be local and plentiful. The tour passes through towns and
villages where food enthusiasts will be able to taste real English ales and
hearty and traditional foods.
Forget about the hustle of
making schedules that include all the “must-see” places of a city, or reading
infinite reviews to find the perfect hotel. On Foot Holidays will prepare you a
complete itinerary for you to enjoy the region, and arrange your stay at
fascinating and typical old inns. We will also handle luggage transfer so you
don’t have any worries or items to carry around while walking.
The South West England tour is available all year round. Rates for
seven nights per person sharing are from $1,213 and include accommodation,
breakfast daily, detailed itinerary and supporting material, and luggage
transfers. On Foot Holidays
recommends an extra day to relax and explore the local countryside at Plush,
the seaside at Lyme Regis or Salisbury.
