Accommodation for walking groups in the UK and Ireland
You enjoy walking and being part of a group but wouldn't decline the offer of some really comfortable and attractive self catering accommodation or holiday cottages to stay in.
So many of us have experienced youth hostels and similar basic group accommodation where you sleep in dormitories, encounter cold showers, or the water suddenly running out just as want to rinse the shampoo from your hair. You really don't have to rough it - life is far too short, and you'll have a much more pleasant experience all round.
The following self-catering accommodation is just a sample of what's on offer. The cost shared with your walking club is really quite affordable. The Feature Page button on the left will help you identify numerous self-catering cottages and accommodation for walking holidays in England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales.
