Guided Walks on the South West Coast Path
With the popularity of the 'Salt Path' it's getting busier on the SWCP. Let me guide you away from the crowds and explore the quiet, remote and rugged scenery of the North Cornish coast.
I was born and raised in the spectacular surroundings of Morwenstow, North Cornwall so can offer truly local experiences that you won't find in the guide books

Morwenstow Coast Circular
Medium / 4.2 miles / 2-3 hours
This route has it all – miles of clifftop walking, a walk out onto Sharpnose Point, ancient churchyards, countryside fields, wooded valleys and a stop at Hawker’s Hut. Perfect if you just have half a day and want to get to some of the more remote parts of the coast. Route starts and ends at a beautiful 13th Century Pub in the middle of nowhere, which offers the perfect place to refuel.
£40
Marsland Valley Woodland Walk
Easy / 1.5 – 2 mile / 1 hour
This spectacular loop on flat and easy terrain goes out to the coast for some high cliff views and a visit to the historic Hawker’s Hut built into the cliff in the 1800’s. We will also pass by Morwenstow Church so this is a good walk if you are interested in the local history of the area. Great for those with limited mobility, time or to avoid steep trails.
£20
Hawker's Hut Loop
Medium / 3-4 mile / 2-3 hours
This route really is off the beaten track. Walk on trails that only a few people know, leading down Marsland Valley Nature reserve. Follow the Cornwall – Devon border through ancient oak woodland until it spills out into the Atlantic at the isolated Marsland Beach, only accessible on foot. Then a steep up and down the clifftop to Welcombe Mouth and a return on sleepy country lanes.
£40
Hartland Quay to Cornish Border
Medium / 5.5 – 7 miles / 6 hours
This route follows the Coast Path between Hartland Quay to the Cornwall / Devon border - one of the most scenic of the entire South West Coast Path. A great chance to spend a lot of time on the coast and enjoy high clifftop panoramas while the terrain is still relatively easygoing.
£50
Medium / 6.2 miles / 3-4 hours
One of the most varied walks I offer. In just over six miles this route offers panoramic views along the South West Coast Path and gorgeous woodland trails which lead out to to the picturesque fishing village of Clovelly. We'll spend time exploring the unique car-free village which looks similar to how it would have hundreds of years ago, before returning through rolling countryside and woodland tracks.
