Our operation is centred around the use of our own, well established but small and personal, Guest House. We are Janet and Richard who having lived, worked and played in this our area for many years, have a genuine understanding of the needs and expectations of those of you who share our love of the countryside.

Footsteps is a modern, spacious, purpose built and well appointed house in a delightful setting close to the Powys/Herefordshire border and under the lea of the Black Mountains. In this we provide all the ‘creature comforts’ ourselves and over the past several years have taken a great deal of pleasure from sharing the beauty of our surroundings with our many guests. We place a great emphasis on a homely atmosphere and always want our guests to feel relaxed and comfortable.

Between us we provide Bed, Breakfast, Packed Lunches and Evening Meals for each day of the holiday. You arrive and settle in and thereafter need not move base again - no more packing and unpacking, no change of beds to unsettle sleep patterns. Just bring as much gear as you can carry on the off-chance that it might be useful. The single base approach is particularly suited to tackling the longer routes such as ODP and WVW as it also allows flexibility to vary the lengths of stages of a walk or even the sequencing of stages at will as the holiday progresses to account for such things as, dare we mention it, the weather or even blisters. It certainly makes initial organisation easier as it avoids the need to find numerous B&B stopovers. For any choice of holiday all your transportation needs during it are taken care of by us as we take you to and pick you up from your start and finish points respectively wherever they are.

Although we provide all your food, on one evening in a week’s holiday we will take you to a local pub for a meal and on other evenings we may find some nearby event to visit or stroll to the ‘local’ for a leisurely drink over which to reprise the days events or to plan the next.
