Reviews for England

Hassness Country House is a fantastic place to stay. Lucy is a talented and generous hostess, and Dinko is a fabulous cook! Our guide, Derek, is a skilled and knowledgeable leader to say the least, but the man he is, outshines most. His endless energy was noteworthy in his care not only for us, but his colleagues and the grounds of Hassness House as well.

We loved it! The tour operator did an excellent job planning it. Penzance and Haydon Bridge were my favourites. Penzance was especially perfect. The B and B was the most welcoming and friendly.read more

Very good. Phil was most helpful in terms of technique and arranged for me to have an even smaller bike on my second day. He also accommodated our requirements re picking up our bikes at the end of each day and transferred my own saddle.read more

All the wildlife moments - we saw adders, choughs (both Cornish and alpine), seals, a spoonbill, egrets, a white-tailed eagle, red kites, kestrels, and most magical of all a pair of dolphins just on the last trek up from Sennen Cove to Land's End.read more
