A perfect morning/afternon with Anna and my family in beautiful picturesque surroundings. A magical relaxing and refreshing forest experience. I would highly recommend. Anna made us feel very at ease and despite our novice level of understanding of what the first can offer food wise we came away with a new understanding and appreciation of everything the tress and wilderness can offer. Including our lottery find of some chicken of the forest!! Many thanks Anna and Pepper.

Anna and Peppa were great company. Anna in particular is sensitive to your interest and needs. Anyone who participates need to keep an open mind to fully immerse and make most out of the experience. Particularly thankful as Anna was thoughtful when I said I wasn't keen on heights (steep trail) and accommodated my needs. Fantastic pair and I wish them both the best.

A magical way to spend the morning! Anna and Pepper are brilliant guides, so friendly and above all extremely knowledgeable and great company. I loved how Anna shares her wisdom and insight in a way that was engaging and memorable. I learnt so much about the local plants and the area we walked in as well as feeling super relaxed and uplifted after forest bathing and drinking foraged tea in the sun. I've already recommended Anna's walks to friends and family and would love to go again.
