We spent a glorious morning walking through the woods taking in autumn in all its amazing beauty, chatting and getting to know my fellow walkers. We were then treated to a feast of fresh soup, breads, cheeses and sweet delights from the lovely Antonia at Huntley house. It was a great way to spend a few hours meeting some amazing people. Thanks Nikki. read less - Debbie Simpey

Nikki met us at Sir Thomas and Lady Dixon’s park on a beautiful sunny day. We enjoyed a guided tour through the park with very easy conversation intermingled with unusual and informative facts from Nikki. We meandered our way through the park and a little suburbia to arrive at Huntley House. Hidden Huntley is a perfect description of this oasis of calm away from it all. Antonia greeted us and lead us into the walled garden where we enjoyed excellent conversation along with an alfresco artisan lunch just right for the day. Finishing with a guided tour of the walled garden we then made our way back to the park and a leisurely stroll back to our starting point with Nikki.We were both surprised and delighted with her beautiful gift of hand made cards. I can highly recommend this as an excellent way to spend a day weather as a couple or small group and would make a unique gift for partner, friends or colleagues. Best of all it’s on your doorstep here waiting for you to discover in wonderful NI. Thanks so much Nikki and Antonia. read less - Christine McKinney

I can’t wait to return and enjoy another day with Nikki! I had a private tour with Nikki to visit Edenderry Village outside of Belfast.

This was the village where my husband’s grandfather was born and lived until he was 18 and immigrated to the US. We walked through the village and even visited inside 2 of the row houses that his great parents resided. The current home owners were so kind and friendly. It was hard to imagine 10 children living in the tiny row house. Nikki set a beautiful picnic table and delicious box lunch, chocolate covered strawberries and authentic Irish apple juice and amazing organic tea. We probably had lunch where my husband’s grandfather played as a child.

I also hired Nikki for 3 hours of ancestry research which made our day far more meaningful. I can’t wait to return and enjoy another day with Nikki! read less - Margaret Coates

I have walked with Nikki twice and each time I have left feeling refreshed and less weighed down. There’s absolutely no pressure, all controlled by you. So you can decide the pace, the walking trail, and what you talk about. And Nikki is just so lovely; she just listens. She is understanding and non-judgemental. She’s a friend by your side when you need one the most.

Lady Dixon park It was amazing to get a walk round and with fun with the kids . Great for a family day out and exhausted kids by the time we got home - Jemma murphy

Our small group never stopped chatting enthusiastically as we walked through parts of the park I personally have never seen before….It was a lovely experience and great company and our guide Nikki and host Antonia managed to create a very warm welcoming atmosphere that we couldn’t help but be relaxed and chilled throughout. It was a truly delightful trek with tasty treats to refresh and tempt us and I was left with a lovely warm autumnal glow after the whole experience. I would recommend it to anyone who wants to have a good walk and a food treat combined and to discover some of the hidden delights of South Belfast. read less - Siofra O’Reilly

The walk off the beaten track into Thomas and Lady Dixon park was beautiful in the autumn colours. It’s so relaxing to be led by someone who knows where they’re going. It allows you to fully switch off and enjoy each step. The walled garden at Huntley is such a hidden gem and it was a joy to be served lunch in the greenhouse and to chat to fellow walkers. This is a truly unique experience highly recommended. read less - Anita Murphy
