Watson, South West Coast Path Dorset May 2021
“ We had a wonderful week. It was very hot which made some parts a little harder but it was August! Your tips about buying lunch were helpful. I did expect to see more accessible pubs/cafes on route. That taught me to read the instructions more carefully next time.
SWCP beautifully signposted. My only negative was the day we finished at Ferrybridge & then walked another 4 miles to the B&B at Weybridge. We did get a bus the next day back to the start of isle of Portland. Overall a very enjoyable week, well organised & we would definitely Re-book. Also thank you for you assistance in reuniting one of our party with their wallet. Much appreciated.
The accommodations averaged 8 out of 10. The walking route was more difficult than expected? (Some parts were very steep up & down but great satisfaction when completed)
The booking and enquiry process was very helpful and efficient.
The guides and maps were very helpful”
