A branch of Cotswold Walking Holidays. Believes walking in a foreign country may work better with children because the lack of familiarity with what they are seeing will help keep them interested.

Where

A wide range of destinations but recommendations include the Pyrenees as not difficult, though the days are long, and good if learning French; Black Forest in Germany (the hotels are spa resorts so have things for children to do); painting and walking in the Roman countryside with a single base with painting classes in the morning and walking or cycling in the afternoon; the Italian Lakes, and the Dordogne though the days are long. Also Ireland though as in the UK the weather can be problematic.

Style

Designed to suit all levels of fitness and tailormade to specific requirements if wished.

Minimum Age

10+.

Accommodation

Two and three-star hotels.

Length of Trips

Around eight days, or long weekends.

Sample Price

Around £400 per person for a week, Germany oddly cheaper than average in better quality hotels.
