You will not need to walk very far and we avoid a strenuous timetable.

The choice of locations and theme for the day will be discussed with you so that we can work with you to get the most out of your time and to meet your personal preferences.
The weather is unpredictable but we cannot do anything about it and therefore we don't believe it should prevent us from enjoying the outdoors. It will influence what we do but it is possible to adjust activities and to protect ourselves from the conditions so expect to carry on with the days plan unless the prudent course of action is to seek refuge.
