Reviews of Mickledore Travel










Mickledore walking holidays are excellent.
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.
Thank you for leaving us such kind feedback. It is lovely to hear that you enjoyed your walk and that the arrangements we made helped you to have such a great experience.

Superb Lakeland Walk
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.

Walking St Cuthbert's Way from Scotland to England
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.
It is lovely to hear that you enjoyed your walk and that the route was interesting even though the weather wasn't kind to you.
Thanks for taking the time to leave us your feedback.

Varied and relaxing
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.
Thank you for leaving us your feedback and photograph. It is great that you enjoyed your walk and the places that we chose for you to stay.

In love with the Cotswolds
A beautiful nine day walk from Chipping Campden to Bath. Aside from some really, really hot weather, the walk was terrific. We enjoyed very good B&B's and inns and having our luggage transported without complication made the whole trip very relaxing.

This was Mickledore and they did a great job of finding good places to stay and in getting our bags moved from place to place. A completely seamless, effortless experience for us (other than the walking!)
Lovely comments and feedback for your trip. Thank you. It is great to hear that you enjoyed your time in the Cotswolds.

Excellent walk with first class backup from Mickledore
Northumbrian Coastal Path through Mickledore was planned to our personal requirements. Stress free luggage transfers, excellent accommodation, and good advice of places to eat.

We walked Hadrians Wall
Good information pack before hand and great advice from Mickledore re direction to walk in, where to have a days break etc. We did the whole Hadrians path and so learned about history of Newcastle, the Romans in that area, ion days when there was no physical wall there were still lots of interesting features an information such as the building of ditch defenses. Often very good views across to Scottish coast east or Cumbrians fells to west...

Often very good views across to Scottish coast east or Cumbrians fells to west. A range of English Heritage musuems to visit. Generally very good accomodation organised for us. Over 7 days we had heavy rain for 2-3 hours on 3 days otherwise dry. Terrain varies, some slow but steep climbs, some road walking, some woods, some tracks, some riverside.

Mickledore were helpful from the start. I felt my questions were taken seriously and suggestions given. Good information pack. They had selected the b&bs based on how many days we wanted to do the walk over. Apart from one place they were all good with 2 being very good.
Thanks for taking the time to leave us your feedback. It is great that you enjoyed your holiday and lovely to hear that you found so much to interest you along the route.

Walking the beautiful Pembrokeshire Coast
We had a great few days walking along the North Pembrokeshire Coast. The scenery was stunning all the way along and the arrangements all ran tomplan.

Pembrokeshire Coast Path Hike
We recently completed our third long distance hike utilizing Mickledore to make all the arrangements for our holiday. Mickledore again provided us with a meticulously planned trip which went off flawlessly. The accommodations were all first-rate, the scenery amazing and we loved every minute of our Pembrokeshire Coast Path Hike. Not sure if Mickledore was responsible for the perfect weather too, but we only have two hours of rain in 17 days ...

Mickledore has made the arrangements for three of our holidays hiking in Great Britain. Each time they have placed us in the best accommodations, made sure our luggage moved with us and provided us with everything we needed to complete our hike successfully and without worry.
Such kind comments. Thank you. It is great to hear that the arrangements we made for your holiday helped you to enjoy a worry free walk. We will be very happy to welcome you back for your next UK walking holiday.
