With friends, I just completed the Pennine Journey. Annette and Brigantes were terrific. Everything went as planned. I highly recommend this company.

Westgate-Appleby, second part for us, and again not a drop of rain and blue sky !
A bit difficult to find the way between Westgate and Blanchland, just need to be carefull near the quarry and when leaving the C2C cycle track.
And baggage transfer absolutely perfect as always !

Absolutely perfect luggage transfer, and Annette very helpfull finding a missing accomodation for us. We walked Horton – Westgate without a drop of rain, and blue sky. Pennine Journey looks a wonderful walk, and the absence of markways was not a real problem, just need to be carefull

The Pennine Journey was a varied and challenging walk. The parts where it coincided with the Pennine Way, South Tyne Trail, Dales Way or Hadrian’s Wall were well waymarked, other parts not, but with maps and guidebook were navigable without much difficulty.
Because of the complication of finding 18 consecutive days accommodation in mainly out of the way villages along the Pennine Journey, we decided for the first time to employ a company to arrange the walk for us and chose Brigantes. We were delighted with the service from start to finish. Annette was helpful when I phoned with a query and the accommodation was all of high quality. She even sent us downloads of the OS maps pertaining to the route. When my husband had an accident I was able to contact Annette on a Friday evening out of office hours and arrange help and when a slight problem with one of the B & Bs arose it was sorted immediately and without fuss. The bags were always at our B & B before us and it was rather a luxury to carry only a day sack rather than all our gear.

This is the 8th consecutive year we have used the excellent services of Annette and her Brigantes team for our baggage transfer whilst undertaking long distance walks. The service is very reliable and the drivers all prompt and very friendly. This year we needed extra support and Annette’s help and understanding was above what we expected, so we would happily recommend them to anyone else. Thank You.

My husband and I recently completed Wainwright`s Pennine Journey and a great walk it was, Bad weather prevented us sticking strictly to the route ie over Wherenside and Ingleborough but alternative route were easy to find with a trusty OS map,
Discovery travel arranged our accommodation which was mostly excellent and Brigantes moved our luggage for us with their usual efficiency. It is great to have such companies who do all the background work so those of us who love to walk in this wonderful country can just get on with the walking
