Mickledore Travel Traveller Reviews

The Cleveland Way provides fantastic contrasts and anticipation of the next day was always a highlight. I've enjoyed the outdoors throughout my life and I found the break perfect for creating a space you can pause the rest of the world as you work through the gears to match the landscape.

The team at Mickledore pulled out the stops at very short notice to provide an itinerary that suited me and I would be happy to recommend them to anyone - very good accoommodation with very helpful hosts really helped at the end of a long day out and I'm already planning my next trip with Mickledore in mind.

The walking route was a circuit which was great for driving/parking arrangements. It covered both lowland farmland and higher moorland with ample walking on each day. All of the accommodation was suitably located on the walking route. It was always of a decent standard with fine breakfasts and packed lunches (and good dinners where available).

Booking on the internet was easy and they soon managed to satisfy all of my requirements about dates and accommodation. On the holiday, everything went to plan with bookings, luggage transport and packed lunch arrangements. They supplied excellent details and maps describing the route and places along the route, with only the occasional hiccup occurring with map reading. All of the accommodation that they use was of a good standard with great breakfasts on all occasions.

walking tour of the island of Arran, Scotland. great scenery and superb wildlife.

I have used Mickledore to arrange my walking holidays for about 7 years - and they have never disappointed. First class support and organisation.

Walking The Dales Way was an amazing experience. Wonderful countryside, something special. Went astray a few times but got there in the end.

Perfect in every way - highly recommend.

Wonderful. Weather cooperated, trek was challenging but beautiful, accommodations were amazing (truly -- we would come in weary and dirty and immediately feel uplifted just because the rooms were so lovely and the shower or bath so inviting), hosts were friendly and helpful, luggage transport was seamless, now and then the packed lunch made us feel like royalty (but most of the time was just a packed lunch).

This is the 4th time we have traveled with Mickledore. Every time they have found us a marvelous array of lodging and have accommodated our every request. They are fabulous. I brag about them often and recommend them to friends.

We walked, ate, drank and relaxed for four days in a very beautiful part of the country - along the Cleveland Way.

Mickledore organised everything beautifully, including picking out the accommodation, arranged our bag transfers, and sorting out a rather complicated arrangement on the last day of our holiday. Their pack including all the information, guides, maps etc that were needed.

During July 2019 I walked part of the Pembrokeshire coast path from Amroth to Dale having booked with Mickledore Travel and found their organisation of my walking trip second to none. All the accommodation they arranged was of a very high standard and the transfer of my luggage was very efficient. All the arrangements worked well and I will not hesitate to book with Mickledore again.

The organisation of my walking holiday was very efficient and when I wanted to make a couple of additions to my plans they were very accommodating. When speaking to them on the phone they were very helpful and treated me as a valued customer. I am very keen to recommend Mickledore to my friends.

Mickledore put everything in place to enable two of us to have a happy and relaxing few days in the Lake District, walking the Inn Way.

Everything was well-organised, the staff were friendly and helpful, accommodation was of a good standard and route notes were clear and accurate.

A 63 mile walk done over 4 days - mostly in very wet conditions, so didn't see the countryside at its best! Nevertheless an interesting and varied walk with the highlight being the Cheviot Hills.

Mickledore provided comprehensive info to allow self-guiding and booked good accommodation along route and arranged bag transfer, taking all the hassle out of the logistics. There is emergency contact if required.

We walked Hadrian's Wall east-to-west, then added on a couple of days of the Cumbria Way to finish in Keswick. The terrain varied hugely along the way, from the city experience of Newcastle to the empty magnificence of the Solway Firth. Wildlife - flowers, birds and butterflies particularly - was our constant companion. We also found that the fellowship of other walkers is a great encouragement and incentive. Altogether great.

Mickledore were very accommodating and flexible with the specific requests we made, such as including part of the Cumbria Way in the holiday. We opted to carry our own bags but on another occasion would probably choose to let them be transferred by Mickledore. The accommodation was normally excellent - the couple of places that were more ordinary were often situated in places where there was little choice, so the variation was understandable. We would certainly choose Mickledore again.
