In a departure from my novel writing, I have started to publish a series of walking guides of the Cotswolds. This combines my loves of writing, walking and photography.

​

My first guide covers a walk from the source of the River Windrush to its confluence with the River Thames. More details can be found by following this LINK which will take you to my walking website.

​​

Of course, there are any number of books describing walks in the Cotswolds, but I have yet to find another one that covers a walk along the length of the River Windrush. 

​​

I thoroughly enjoyed not only walking the Windrush, but also recording it for others to follow. As well as taking the walker through places they may already know, I hope the guide will be a catalyst for walkers to venture further afield and off the well beaten track to explore the lesser-known parts of our countryside.

​​

I would be delighted to hear any experiences that you may have during your walk. Please do get in touch, by posting comments on my Facebook page at @MartinMaraisAuthor.

​

Finally, if you do buy a copy of the guide, I would be very grateful if you could leave a review of it at the place where you purchased it. This is not only because reviews are important to authors, but because the style and content of the guide is the result of reading reviews of other walking guides. Therefore, your feedback will help make future editions of this guide both more interesting and more useful to other walkers.
