Summer, 26 July to 02 August, 2025.
At this time of year when it's getting dark outside, and the weather isn't perfect, I look forward to the coming year and walking with friends and likeminded folk in the great outdoors.
Exmoor has all the ingredients for a really great walking holiday: the views of both coast and moorland are sublime, its rich history, pristine ancient woodlands and all from our homely base in the Yarn Market Hotel, Dunster. You can leave the car in Dunster for the week as ALL transport to trail heads is included.
Some of the most recent feedback:
"Fabulous week with Wilkes Walks' "Enticing Exmoor" based at Yarn Market Hotel, a warm and friendly family-run hotel in beautiful Dunster. Excellent organisation and leadership as always by Julian Wilkes. Great company of small group of walkers from all parts of the UK. Julian knows the area so well that he was able to accommodate our varying abilities to everyone's satisfaction, with plenty of rest and refreshment stops to keep us all happy. Brilliant holiday and would highly recommend as a way of seeing the varied landscapes of this beautiful part of the world".
*"Extremely well led by Julian, who took care to spend time en route with the tortoises and the hares in our sociable group.Wonderful array of locations on moors, valleys, woods, coast path and stream side.
Nice old hotel with friendly staff and good catering".
"Exmoor March 2023: A great week in varied and beautiful countryside. The leader is exceptionally well informed about the natural world and led with genuine enthusiasm. He was always attentive to individual needs as well as the group. Fun and interesting. Great walking companions. Hotel very comfortable and welcoming with friendly, hardworking staff who genuinely do everything possible to please".
