Just got back from a fantastic break based in York. Excellent hotel, very friendly tour guide who immediately made me feel welcome and happy to be there. (Thank you Min!) Two good walking days - but don't think you have to be ultra fit to keep up - as long as you can walk you will be alright. I'm a smoker, but I wasn't the slowest. The York tour (in the middle of the two proper walking days) was also very interesting and also gave me some time to be on my own. The hotel and the food were excellent - the breakfast bar had everything you could wish for, and the dinner choices had something for everyone. The hotel also had a swimming pool which I made use of every day.
Only criticisms:
1. Could have had more green veg with the dinner - but it was still excellent.
2. As a lady smoker, it was not pleasant to have to stand outside the front of the hotel to have a cigarette. There is an area at the back of the hotel but at night it is fairly dark.
But definitely a recommended break.
