Walkers Accommodation Booking and Luggage Transfer Service

A flexible accommodation booking and luggage transfer service for independent walkers. Use Byways Breaks experience of organising walking holidays and knowledge of the trail walks, without having to book a fully ‘packaged’ walking holiday.

Byways Breaks walking holidays will:

• help walkers plan trail walks around the walking distance you want to do and quality walker friendly accommodation
• check availability of good quality walker friendly accommodation
• check for dog friendly accommodation (if required)
• make the accommodation bookings and payments
• arrangements for packed lunches and evening meals (in more remote areas)
• arrange for your luggage to be transferred each day

…allowing you to enjoy a stress free walking holiday.

Tell Byways Breaks how far you want to walk, whether you want a rest day, whether you want to walk the whole trail or part of it and any other particular requirements you may have for your walking holiday – including walking with dogs.

Walker Friendly Accommodation Booking

The accommodation we choose is all different, all comfortable and offers a warm welcome for walkers. Byways Breaks know the walking areas we offer well and visit all the accommodation we use. Over the years we have carefully selected a range of good quality walker friendly accommodation, including; farmhouses, B & Bs, pubs and hotels. All rooms will have en-suite or private bathroom.
