The Hadrian's Cycleway Guide is designed to act as a resource centre for the HCW cycle route and as such it's aim is to offer you tips, advice and (hopefully!) helpful pointers to enable you to plan your trip more confidently which means you can pre-plan your trip and concentrate more on the cycling than the worrying - or at least that's the theory!

All of this means that I offer you bits of information which are given in good faith and, as far as is possible, up to date and correct. However by using and/or acting upon the information contained in The HCW Guide you must accept all responsibility for using and/or acting upon that information. The HCW Guide (nor any of its contributors or myself) cannot be held responsible or liable for any claim or loss arising from the use of any information provided by the HCW Guide. If in any doubt about any of the information offered it is up to you to double check all information contained within, or on sites linked to, The HCW Guide.

Accommodation
None of the accommodation providers listed in the HCW Guide have been inspected by the HCW Guide nor can The HCW Guide vouch for any of the establishments listed. If I hear bad reports on any of the accommodation providers listed then they lose their listing on the guide but that is as far as the HCW Guide's input goes. All bookings are done direct by you with the proprietors and you should satisfy yourself as to the suitability of the establishment or any of the claims it makes. Remember to double check all details with the establishment as this guide cannot be held responsible for any inaccuracies or omissions nor for any loss arising as a result of information (real or false) contained within The HCW Guide.

Basically, all of the above means that I am offering a service to cyclists wishing to attempt the HCW cycle route and in return I ask you not to sue me if any of that 'good' advice turns out to be duff!
