Mickledore Travel Traveller Reviews

As a recently retired couple who haven't walked a long-distance route for years, we loved the pace of this holiday. The shorter daily mileage allowed us to enjoy the scenery, have coffee breaks and a browse around the village/town destinations each day which were so picturesque. We loved the whole concept of waking up in a different village/town each day and moving on without a suitcase! Great accommodation, lovely hosts and flawless baggage handlers and taxi transfers when needed.

Mickledore were recommended to us by experienced walking friends and they did not disappoint! We booked in advance and advice was offered from the start on best starting dates, including a rest day. Information provided was spot on -loved the personalised booklet, description of route and OS map which helped. I was apprehensive as to whether I would be catered for being vegan. Mickledore informed all our accommodation, and it was not an issue-they also provide websites for evening meals at destinations, so I was able to pre-book which is advisable. Already looking at booking our next walking holiday with them.

Our group hiked for 9 days on the South West Coast Path in North Cornwall, UK, from Westward Ho to Padstow.

This is the fourth trip that I have undertaken with Mickledore. They have consistently provided excellent service, attending to every detail of the trip planning process. The accommodations have consistently been very good and materials provided for the trip (maps, guidebooks, recommendations for eateries, and sundry details) have been suburb! They have consistently been prompt and courteous in their communications and when there were problems, such as having to reschedule this trip twice because of COVID travel restrictions, they were enormously helpful in rescheduling. Top notch agency!

Wonderful walking from St David's to St Dogmaels along the northern Pembrokeshire coastal path. Thrilled to see many seals and their pups in remote coves, herons, a kingfisher and dolphins. Good accomodation and food with helpful luggage transfers.

Mickeldore have been helpful throughout the booking process. Their website is accurate and enabled us to choose the right walking holiday for us this year. They are always prompt and courteous when answering questions and the holiday pack is very useful. They booked us into good accomodation with friendly hosts .

Mickledore organised my recent Borders Abbeys Way walk and all I had to do was turn up and enjoy the experience. It was a very varied and satisfying circuit - the route was full of interest, history and beautiful scenery. Route finding was easy with a helpful little guidebook and excellent waymarking. Highlights included the 20 minutes spent watching an otter dive for food in the River Teviot, not forgetting the abbeys themselves and a series of historic towns to explore at the end of each day's walk. I always look forward to arriving at my accommodation at the end of the day and this time the places I stayed in were even better than I expected. And I do have high expectations of this company. I had some huge, some cosy rooms in a variety of amazing B&Bs, all with friendly and helpful hosts.

This was my 10th Mickledore walk - I've reached double figures! As usual, all the information needed en route was included in the comprehensive holiday pack as well as in the app and I had total peace of mind that all eventualities were covered.

My sister and I walked the Isle of Wight coastal path this year. This holiday has been a long time coming and we were both looking forward to it. We did not need to worry about accommodation as this was organised for us. The holiday pack had all the relevant information and places to eat where we were staying overnight. This is the second holiday we booked with Mickledore and we would use them again for our next walking adventure.

Mickledore travel organised our walking holiday from start to finish, we did not have to worry about anything which made the holiday a very pleasant experience.

In 2022 we walked the Lady Anne's Way through the picturesque Yorkshire Dales & in to the eastern edge of The Lake District. Beautiful scenery, and some great walking. Despite being over 100 miles long, it was fairly easy going - but the ability to read a map is essential as there were not that many dedicated Lady Anne's Way markers.

We have used Mickledore many times and will return next year I am sure

Gorgeous scenery lovely local towns/villages. Friendly people, great service.

Well organised, helpful and responsive to any issues. Would highly recommend.

We have just returned from their Gower walking holiday. As always, the arrangements were impeccable. The Gower ‘circular’ is a new route for Mickledore and we were keen to try it. We were not disappointed. Great walking, varied scenery and an average of 10 miles per day which suits us. The B&BS were really nice and all the baggage transfers worked extremely well.

We have used Mickledore for UK walking holidays for several years. They are always a great company to do business with. The staff at their office are always cheerful and helpful. Walking instructions are clear, the B&Bs they book are of good quality and all the arrangements work perfectly. We will continue to use them on a regular basis.

It was well organised and ran perfectly

Simply very good indeed

Fantastic walk along Hadrian’s wall in 5 days - great scenery, super accommodation and great weather - perfect

Mickledore were excellent at every turn - initial booking and alterations/additions along the way. All staff so friendly and efficient both on the phone and via email. They went above and beyond selling holidays they obviously knew all about. They were a pleasure to deal with and did everything as promised
