Westmorland & Tour of the Lakes walking holiday

We combined a portion of the Westmorland Way and the entire Tour of the Lake District and Mickledore made that happen without a hitch.

It was fantastic! Mickledore chose all of the best accommodations and took care of us all the way through (via luggage transfers, lunches and other details).

Rating for tour operator:

Mickeldore took a good deal of care in arranging our holiday for 13 people, with some arriving and leaving during the period. There were, no doubt, plenty of organisational headaches, but these weren't obvious to us. Interestingly, the people providing services to Mickeldore were very supportive of the company.

Thank you for your great feedback. It is wonderful that you enjoyed your walk and that the arrangements we made for your group worked so well for you.

Walking the south Pembrokeshire Coastal Path

Stunning scenery, manageable walking days, lovely bed and breakfast accommodation - all aspects of the holiday organised by Mickledore who could be contacted should a problem arise.

Rating for tour operator:

We have had several walking holidays organised by Mickledore. They organise bed and breakfast, luggage transport, maps and guidebook, packed lunches and suggestions for evening meal establishments - or whichever of these you want. Additionally they are contactable should any problem arise during your holiday. We have found them to be a helpful, friendly and reasonably priced organisation offering a wide range of walking holidays in Britain, and we are planning more holidays with them.

Thank you for your lovely feedback. It is great that you enjoyed your walk and the coastal scenery of the route. We will be delighted to welcome you back for further holidays in the UK.

Rating for tour operator:

Mickledore were well organised from the moment I made the booking, advising on the best walking dates and booking accommodation accordingly. They took note of dietary requirements and stayed in touch by email. A few weeks before the holiday they provided a detailed information pack on the walk - maps, what to see and where to eat - and the accommodation. Accommodation was largely very good value. Great holiday.

Rerwarding experience

The Cotswold Walk goes through beautiful countryside , is demanding, but the daily distances can be covered. The accomodation was excellent , the villages really lovely and on top of it, the weather was superb.

Very thorough operation, handling of the logistics was flawless. We had 2 minor issues come up that were handled by the staff quickly and efficiently (one even outside normal business hours). Well organized packet of information.

Great Glen Way by Nana03, 27 Sep 2018

Hiked Great Glen Way in Scotland from Fort William to Inverness

We walked the Great Glen Way in Scotland from Fort William to Inverness. We took high roads and low roads, walked through forests and meadows and along canals. Following the entire length of Loch Ness, with beauty surrounding us everywhere. We had lots of sun, lots of clouds, lots of light rain. And we had really terrific food and hospitality.

Amazing walking with comfort

Walking Hadrian's wall was an amazing experience without the worry of taking my luggage from one place to the next. Mickledore did all of that. All I had to do was walk and enjoy the views. All accomodation was top standard.
