Fantastic write up of the Grand Tour des Écrins, described as "the hike of a lifetime", which starts a short walk from our apartments.

We still have some availability in our 1, 2 or 3 bedroom apartments this autumn. Come and enjoy the spectacular scenery - there are hikes for every ability! We can recommend walks from 1 hour to 1 week long.

The Tour des Écrins in the Hautes-Alpes is one of Europe’s finest long-distance walks, and offers a chance to reflect on how best to live alongside nature

Yesterday was an awesome achievement. Cycled the entire width of the country in one day. From sun up on the Isle of Sheppey, to sundown in Weston-Super-Mare

Around 210miles/340km start to finish

I’m totally exhausted but chuffed to bits. My longest ride ever
