**New Year: Walking in the Mendips and partying in Loxton**
**Come and enjoy a refreshing Ads Ventures walking break in the Mendips over New Year, complete with a 7-course gala dinner with live music on New Year’s Eve at the Webbington Hotel and Spa.**

What could be better to see in the New Year than a healthy walking break in the beautiful Mendips complete with an all singing, all dancing, 7-course gala dinner on New Year’s Eve?. Book yourself in for a 3- or 4- night break and come and enjoy some lovely walks in this delightful part of the country with time to take advantage of the hotel spa at the end of the day and start 2026 in the way you would like it to carry on!

Our home for this New Year break is the Webbington Hotel and Spa one of the most idyllic country hotels in Somerset. Originally an attractive Edwardian Manor, the house and grounds have been developed to create a peaceful and spacious hotel with extensive Leisure Club facilities including swimming pool, gymnasium, sauna, steam room and treatment rooms. Use of these is complimentary during our stay.
All rooms are comfortable, are ensuite, and have tea and coffee making facilities. If you would rather share a room than pay the single supplement then please let me know as I would be happy to pair you with someone of the same sex to share. If no one is available then the single supplement would need to be paid.

**Tuesday December 30th**
Arrive at Webbington Hall Hotel and Spa and check into your room. Meet at 7pm for a short briefing about the break ahead before our three-course dinner is served in the hotel’s restaurant.
**Meals included: dinner**

**New Year’s Eve: Cheddar Gorge**
Today we explore Cheddar Gorge, a 137 m deep, 1.5 kilometre long chasm in the Mendip Hills, one of the greatest natural wonders of Britain. We drive and park in Cheddar, approximately 20 minutes from the hotel, and then climb Tuttors Hill steadily to Ashridge Farm. Once we are high we stay high and pick up the West Mendip Way as it crosses fields and woodland before continuing through a steep sided dry limestone valley - a particularly attractive part of the walk. A brief climb takes us on to a path along the rim of Cheddar Gorge with views ahead across Cheddar Reservoir, the Somerset levels and Quantocks. We descend into the town of Cheddar which we will have time to explore before returning to the hotel.
You may want to relax in the spa for a while before getting ready for the highlight of our holiday, a 7-course gala dinner to see in 2026.
**12 km (7.5 miles) ascent/descent 380 m**
**Meals included: breakfast, and 7 course New Year’s Eve Gala Dinner.**

**New Year’s Day: Crooks Peak**
We will allow ourselves a later start for New Year's Day and walk from the hotel. An ascent of Crooks Peak, the closest hill to the hotel should blow some cobwebs away. We stay high to take in Compton Hill and then descend gently over Wavering Down to the village of Cross. From here we follow the Cheddar Yeo river back to Webbington.
**12.5 km (7.5 miles) ascent/descent 280 m**
**Meals included: breakfast and dinner**
