I run South Downs Discovery from start to finish - planning, booking and making sure everything runs smoothly. I know the trail inside out, from the best views to the cosiest pubs, and I’m here to help you enjoy every step.

Our reviews

We had a really good trip thank you, the accommodation was all really good.  Breakfasts were all very good and luggage transfer worked very well. So a great few days away, bit achy after 7 Sisters but loved it.

Overall the SDW walk and delightful accommodation made for a really enjoyable experience. South Downs Discovery provided efficient and responsive support from the moment of booking through to end of the walk. I would be happy to use SDD anytime.

Thank you very much for the organisation. Everything was great: the luggage transport was excellent, the b&b’s were fantastic and above all the hiking was great, relaxing and strenuous at the same time. We also had all possible weather conditions: sunshine, wind, fog and rain. We enjoyed it very much. Thanks again.

I really want to thank you for setting this up for me and choosing such wonderful places to stay.  The luggage transfer was flawless.  You are obviously held in very high regard by the owners and innkeepers, so keep that up!

Thank you so much for making the experience of walking the SDW more enjoyable and memorable ,than if we had had to sort out all the logistics ourselves. Overall I believe we shared a brilliant experience.

We had a really good time, everything worked well. The weather held up and all of your the directions and recommendations for lunch were spot on. We have done lots of long-distance walks and it was really helpful to have your map with the annotations and the bespoke itinerary. Thanks again!
