Testimonials

Grateful thanks to those who have given us permission to use their "testimonial" quotes, all of which have been taken from walkers after holidays with us in 2007.


"I've been on lots of walking and ski-ing holidays but John and Pete are the best leaders in the business! Their experience and confidence made things very relaxed. Their warmth, humour and sensitivity made everyone, without exception, feel welcome and confident. I would recommend Knobbly Stick to anyone who wants a challenge, or feels a bit nervous, or needs a jolly good laugh, or all three."
Ms H.B., London


"We always agreed that we should never repeat a holiday...this is our fourth time with Knobbly Stick!"
Mr & Mrs R.L., Abingdon


"We always look forward to our Knobbly Stick holiday. We need it to de-stress!"

Mr & Mrs G.S., Aylesbury


"Thank you for a wonderful, fun, safe week. I felt very welcome and never had any problems travelling alone. I look forward to seeing you again next year."

Ms M.C., Illinois, USA


"Stunningly beautiful (not John or Pete) Good hotel, good food, good company, wonderful views, well organised. What more could you want?"

Mr C.S., Somerset.


"This was the first holiday I had taken by myself. I was made to feel welcome right from the start. Thank you for a lovely holiday."

Ms. S.A., Wilts


"The best [holiday] yet; so much more than a walking holiday."

Mr & Mrs D.D., Oxfordshire


"You made every effort to accommodate our wishes, and were always ready with help and advice when needed."

Mr & Mrs J.G., Bath


"Attention to detail, the personal touch, good value...it's difficult to say how it could be improved. How come you're not better known?"
Mr P.E., BFPO


"Found you on the internet, and we are pleased we did."

Mr & Mrs M.E., Surrey


"Nothing to worry about. Just arrive at the hotel - then relax and enjoy."
Ms V.B., Chester


"I thoroughly enjoyed my walking holiday and will be back for more next year"
Ms C.M., Birmingham


"As a single person you are made to feel completely at ease and safe"
Ms A.B., London


"As an overseas traveller, one often feels that one is just passing through the country without really experiencing it. Knobbly Stick enabled me to experience the country around Keswick more as a local. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and expertise to show me your beautiful Lake District."

Ms V.C, NSW, Australia


"You inspired me to take to the hills at home...I look forward to coming back another year!"

Ms E.R, Connecticut, USA


"Imaginative itinerary walking an iconic railway."
Mr M.C. Middlesex.


"Well worth crossing the Atlantic many more times for!"
