Mickledore Travel Traveller Reviews

Because Mickledore took such excellent care of me my only concern was to enjoy myself. I couldnt get lost as the maps, supportive text and information were so well laid out. Each day i saw nature in all its glory and mans addition to it. Hadrians wall is something everyone should do especially with a company such as Mickledore as they make you feel so secure and looked after.

I have been on many holidays that offer the same service as Mickledore. Well they need to take lessons from Mickledore. From start to finish I felt so looked after and secure. Nothing had veen left to chance. They were so polite when you rang up. They did everythibg they said would and more.

As above. Great views, great weather, great accommodations.

All the information was useful. I enjoyed the self-guided holiday.

A great coast to coast walk well organised. Good accommodation, breakfasts either good or excellent, overall food and drink were an unexpected highlight of the trip.

Mickledore were well organised and responsive. I have only put good because I have not experienced other operators, they may well have been excellent.

To celebrate my retirement I booked a walking holiday. I live in Eastbourne and it had always been my intention to walk the whole of the South Downs Way starting in Winchester and finishing in Eastbourne. I wanted to walk at a fairly leisurely rate to enable me to take in the scenery and wildlife as well as visiting a few historic churches. Therefore I opted for the 9 days walking option.

From my initial e mail communication to the end of the walk everything worked like clockwork. They organised the accommodation, baggage transfer, packed lunches and transfer to the accommodation if it was a significant way off the trail. The accommodation was excellent and it was interesting how many of my hosts spoke very highly of Mickledore. In all cases they had sent someone from the company to view the property. A change of accommodation was required for one night and this was communicated to me straight away and a new itinerary was printed out. The maps and information booklets were first rate. I particularly liked their app which I downloaded to my phone. It meant I had all the details of my holiday including my itinerary at my fingertips.

Wonderful coastal walk, much to see on the way, lovely coastal villages and country pubs- and easily self-navigable.

Respond promptly to emails when booking, move luggage safely and reliably, find great accomodation along the route and provide more than enough instruction, maps and book to find your way .

Walking in the Lakes

Great organiser, aligned with good clean and friendly hotels

Lovely walk. Distances (16 - 18km/day) were about right for us (in our 60s). Enjoyed the variety of scenery and pubs a.ong the way.

This was our second walk with Mickledore and they did a great job again. Luggage transport was efficient, maps, etc. were clear. B&Bs were varied and ranged from decent to excellent.

My father in law, a walking veteran of some 60 years, said this was the most beautiful walk of his lifetime. He was not lying.

My second walk arranged by Mickledore and I couldn't be happier. Co-walkers experienced botched bookings and problems with hotels. I didn't have a single issue. The B&Bs were always acceptable-good standard, some were spectacular. I could concentrate on my walking and had no worries in the world.

First time on a walking holiday so relied on good instructions which were excellent, accommodation better than expectations in most cases.

Everything as promised and kept us informed of even minor changes, although not needed felt they were available if necessary, also easy to contact with no hanging on in a queue or pressing number after number on the keypad.

This was our third holiday with Mickledore; this time walking the North Norfolk coast path. We were once again pleased by the attention to detail in planning our overnight stops, and the general information about the walk. Th booking went smoothly and we were kept informed.

Mickledore organise walking holidays, planning all aspects including the overnight B and Bs, transfer of luggage and the day's walks.
