Mickledore Travel Traveller Reviews

We started at Winchester and walked east following the South Downs Way. We spent 4 days walking approx 12 miles a day, finishing at Amberley which is the halfway point. Mickledore had booked our bed & breakfast accommodation each day and arranged luggage transfer between them so we only had to carry a daypack. Packed lunches were provided by our hosts. The walk was relatively easy, we were given excellent maps and a guidebook, the scenery was stunning and it was a very enjoyable holiday.

Mickledore were very professional and easy to deal with by phone or online. Despite relatively short notice and the covid pandemic, they arranged high standard accommodation with taxi transfers from the route if they were not within walking distance. They gave advice about places to eat out at night and provided very good map and guidebook. The organisation was excellent, all ran like clockwork.

We walked for a week from St Bees to Kirkby Stephen which is the first part of the CtC walk.

Mickledore was a most efficient operator who organised our accommodation, transfer of luggage and ourselves well.

Having had a big trip to South Africa cancelled, we were really keen to have an activity holiday in this country and the Coast to Coast walk was something we had always planned to do. When we saw that Mickledore offered a Coast to Coast holiday we jumped at the opportunity, particularly as accommodation on this long distance walk normally gets booked up very quickly. It turned out to be a wonderful trip with great walking, beautiful scenery and very well run. We can’t wait to book the next one !

Mickledore are a partner company to KE travel who we had our original holiday booked with. They were very efficient, quick to respond to any queries and provided with lots of well- researched information about the trip. We were extremely impressed with their service.

Walking holiday around Isle of Wight. Well organised with good B&Bs, directions and maps

Great service

We chose to combine 2 walking holidays the first ending at Holy Island and the 2nd starting at Berwick on Tweed (just a short transfer between the 2). The first followed the river Tweed for a lot of it, edges of moorland, stunning views, meet very other people. The 2nd had a mixture of slightly inland (because of the physical geography and coast path by wide, sandy quite wild coast and passing several of the Northumbrian castles. We choose to do both walks over 4 days each so quite a lot of miles each day 16 often, butt here is scope to do both over more days Mickledore booked our overnight accommodation and organised our main luggage transfer. Several of the b&bs were exceptional, covid precautions taken seriously everywhere. We chose not to have the b&b make a sandwich lunch (although it's an option) and liked begin able to have a range of different things for lunch.

This is the 2nd time we have used Mickledore. Very quick to respond to queries, excellent comprehensive travel pack, guide books,OS maps, detailed info about essential phone numbers in each town/village, possible lunch stops to buy things. We were doing the Northumbrian coast in the opposite direction from how it is usually done and Mickledore were very flexible when we realised that we would need to do this. When at end of holiday we gave feedback about each of the b&bs we had stayed in and the taxi transfers there was detailed responses. We have felt that Mickledore really do want us to have a good time and that we are treated as individuals not just another customer

We embarked on the first few stages of the SWCP from Minehead to Westward Ho! An incredible weeks' hiking with the most spectacular and dramatic scenery. The whole experience was wonderful and we certainly wish to return to do more stages and would not hesitate to book through Mickledore. It is certainly addictive.

Mickledore took care of organising all our accommodation and luggage transfers for our recent 7 day hiking adventure on the first few stages of the South West Coast Path. This enabled us to enjoy our hiking, without the worry of where to stay, etc. From our first contact, the M staff were brilliant, providing us with a small booklet with all the information we needed whilst away, map etc. We would most definitiely look to book with them in the future. We certainly wish to continue to hike sections of this amazing path.

I probably would never have thought of doing this if it had not been for the travel restrictions imposed by covid but I'm so glad I did. Did it solo/self guided and loved it. The information pack sent by mickledore was very concise and covered every conceivable need and eventuality ( fortunately mostly not needed) making me feel safe at all times ( important for a female travelling alone) and the accommodation delightful. I would not hesitate to recommend this holiday and tour operator to anyone else considering the same

Briiliant support and information pack. Accommodation lovely and baggage transport seemless. All I had to do was walk. What's not to love!!

Walking the Fife Coastal Path, all arrangements went as planned.

Excellent communication, everything we needed in terms of information, could not ask for better.

A smashing walking holiday in the Scottish Borders and Northumberland. Tailored to our preferences for length of day walk, excellent B&Bs and small inns and hotels, luggage reliably transported for us, and with all routes, maps and tips supplied. All Covid secure. Just the break we needed.

Mickledore could not have been more helpful and provided all the information we needed. Also, we had some unusual dietary requirements, and all our hosts were prepared for this.

We walked Hadrian’s Way in September, not only we had 6days of great walking weather, it was organised for us by Mickledore Travel! It was top service! We had such a lovely B&B booked each night! It was Great! More than we wished for!

Super easy communication! Very friendly & helpful team. We didn’t need to worry about a thing!
