Thanks for a wonderful couple of days - your superb guiding made the holiday!
We have arrived back in Suffolk and have already bored my husband to tears with the tales of our two walks. The guided walks were the highlight of our trip. I'm thrilled that I did the 'adventure' version back, complete with scrambling and Billy loved doing routes that only an expert would know. We are now thinking that we might delay our Ben Nevis ambition and try and entice the family back to Borrowdale with us next year.

I really enjoyed both of the guided fell walks that I have done with Anna in Patterdale and Borrowdale this year. Anna is a very friendly and incredibly knowledgeable guide to the entire region of the Lake District. She offers practical help if needed when going up on the highest fells, or on a range of lower walks. Anna’s expertise regarding the geology, history, flora and fauna of the area is sensitively conveyed if this seems appropriate to the moment, or in answer to questions. Anna is a most dependable guide, and walking companion, who is keen to share her enthusiasm. Thank you Anna!

I spent a few hours with Anna climbing up and down Glaramara.
A lovely steady pace making it feel easy to go up and down. Through gusts of winds, rain and sunshine. Anna has such a calming and pleasant nature, the walk seemed effortless.

A first day lowland walk through Borrowdale area along Derwent Water shoreline: a great introduction appreciated as someone new to The Lakes area. Anna’s thoughtful leading is enriched with her local history, knowledge and' finds' that an ‘outsider’ might miss. Thank you Anna; hope to find you again very soon!

Anna is an experienced and knowledgeable guide. I welcomed her advice on how to manage difficult terrain.
Anna is a very informative guide, with an abundance of local knowledge. She instantly makes people feel relaxed, engaged and confident in what they are undertaking.
Anna's local knowledge is exceptional. She has a very calm, friendly and capable affect and it was an inspiration hearing about her background in climbing and hiking.
Anna was our guide as we climbed Scafell Pike. She was amazing, as I am new to walking she guided me across terrain I would have been apprehensive about 6 months ago, making me feel very confident in what I was doing and keeping me safe. The knowledge that Anna displays is excellent, I would definitely look to Anna to be my guide on many of the fabulous walks in the Lake District in the future.
Anna has a clear love and knowledge of the area, and I felt I was in safe hands as she helped as guide up and down Scafell Pike.
