Me and my friend want to spend our climbing vacation from 25-Jul-14 to 11-Aug-14 in northern England/Wales. We usually climb multi pitch routes in the Austrian Alps. These routes have bolted belay points and usually some bolts in between as well.
I'm a reasonably competent multi pitch leader (easy stuff – up to V+ UIAA, dependig on fall potential) and my friend happily follows me up most things. We have no experience in trad climbing.
Any suggestions where to climb in northern England/Wales?
Criteria:
+ relatively easy to place gear (or even sport routes)
+ landscape
We are interested in instructions as well. Any recommendation for free lancing climbing instructors?
