Always grateful for your feedback…

” I wanted to say thank you for guiding Milo and I up Scafell Pike. We had a great day. Bill is very reassuring and extremely patient. We felt relaxed and very safe at all times. We would recommend Bill to anyone who wanted to enjoy the outdoors in a safe and fun way. We will be back!” Esther

“Can’t recommend Bill Mumford’s Well-being Hikes enough! You may be dealing with work or personal challenges… sadness, presentism or maybe you just simply know ‘you’re worth it’.

Bill’s approach to get you to take time out and reflect is the best experience ever. Beats any talking therapy I have tried… maybe that’s because Bill got me to be quiet and be present in myself…. certainly time well invested in ‘me’”  Sarah

“Just wanted to send you a note to say thank you again for the great day out on Crinkle Crags.  I’ve been looking at that skyline and wishing I could explore it since I first started coming to the Lake District. Now, not only have I been up there (amazing!), I have more confidence and some skills that will help me make that round and navigate others on my own.

I really appreciated your patient guidance on matching the map to the observable features, and using the compass and step counts to figure out where I was and where I wanted to get to. You increased my independence by encouraging me to “go and take a look” and suggest the way myself instead of just telling me where to go. I also enjoyed the wide-ranging conversation and the knowledge of the area that you shared along the way. You’re an engaging and interesting guide and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend you to lead a mountain walk and/or to provide expert navigation instruction.”  Elizabeth

“Thank you so much for the wonderful climb last weekend, it was great to have your guidance and I really enjoyed the experience. It was the highlight of my trip! I’m already looking forward to taking on more climbs and walks in the future” Lydia

“A big thank you to Bill who was my fabulous guide. This was a personal challenge for me as I have a fear of heights that I am trying to conquer. Bill was patient, reassuring, motivational and made sure that all of us were very safe and enjoying ourselves. I really appreciated his help and encouragement over the tricky parts of Striding Edge and the start of our steep descent on Swirral Edge. Unfortunately due the weather our view was one of mist! At least now I feel confident that I could achieve it again, even if I could see the extent of the drops.” Sarah

“Hi what a great walk today .Shame about the weather. Bill was brilliant kept us all going and safe perfect guide” Simon 

“I’ve literally put the phone down on Katie from yesterday’s walk who couldn’t speak any higher of you. She commended your group management, people skills, professionalism, knowledge of geology and your calm demeanor.”  Lyanda

“Back from our Helvellyn walk today, just wanted to say how absolutely amazing Bill the guide was, without him, I would not have made it.  Thanks for a great day.”  Gail and Liz
