West Highland Way by Foreword Mover, 25 Oct 2022
Holiday Rating:

Wonder of the West Highland Way

Our trip in October was better than we hoped and every mile brought on a new sense of magic only the highlands can offer with their majestic backdrop. Rainbows and some rain, tons of waterfalls, moors and mountains, castles and historic buildings along the way made this vacation unforgettable.

We can't imagine doing a walk without their careful help and planning. They reached out pre-trip to warn about some potential rain-related detours! They manage to find us the most bespoke accommodations and interesting places to visit and we can't thank them enough for making our hiking holidays so amazing.

Breathtaking English Countryside

With some trepidation, our small group with the valuable help of Mickledore started our Hadrian’s Wall hike . We did this over 9 days at a leisurely pace. The trail was well marked, breathtaking views, meandering through small villages. Meeting wonderful people along the way added to the delight. We were very lucky to enjoy grand weather. Just a most marvellous adventure.

After our first night, we relaxed and had no concerns about the trail, accommodations, restaurant reservations and the hike itself. Packed lunches were available and at a reasonable cost. All went very well. Mickledore was there to answer any concerns. We were able to download a Mickledore app with our itinerary, service list eg taxis, hospitals, restaurants, shops. The maps were very accurate, a book on the wall and luggage labels were provided We followed Mickledore’s recommendations about pre booking dinner The details about transportation ie how to get there and of the luggage and the organization were impressive. We are all looking forward to our next hiking adventure through Mickledore

Cumbria Way by TypeAPos, 19 Oct 2022

Cumbria Way in 5 days

Occasional roue finding problems, despite 3rd party maps and a guide book (and the odd human error), but we always ended up where we were supposed to be, in good time too.

Pembrokeshire Coastal Path

We spent 13 wonderful days walking the Pembrokeshire Coastal Path from Amroth to St Dogmaels in September/October 2022. Spectacular scenery, warm and wonderful people, amazing coastal towns. Definitely one of our favourite long distance walks.

Walking the Dingle Way

My husband and I spent 9 days in Ireland walking the Dingle Way. The walk itself was beautiful, varied, well marked and lushly green. Dingle is a great day to take a break and do some sightseeing. Easy public transportation to the start/finish of Tralee.

It was our fourth self-guided walking tour arranged excellently by Mickledore. Every detail they arranged was wonderful. Excellent accommodations with friendly hosts, taxis arrived on time, bags were always waiting for us when we arrived at the B&B and the restaurant recommendations were spot on. We will always count on Mickledore to arrange our adventures in the British Isles.

Superb

A truly wonderful walk along the glorious Pembrokeshire coastal footpath: a mixture of sublime, scintillating and sweet sea and land scape.
