The Inn Way to the Lake District by DavidGordon, 17 Jul 2018

Mickledore arranged the accomodation for our Inn Way Lake District week, send us maps and guides, and dealt efficiently with our needs (one twin, one double). Their app helped us find our way to each new inn or b+b. Very responsive to emails and phone calls.

South Downs Way by Pixie, 16 Jul 2018
Holiday Rating:

Highly efficient service from start to finish.

This is the third walking holiday that Mickledore has arranged for us. This year we walked the South Downs Way, previously the Cotswolds Way and the Dales Way. Each time we have had the same excellent service. It gives great peace of mind to know they have emergency procedures, even though luckily we haven't needed to use them. We once used a different company and regretted it.

Wonderful walking holidays with Mickledore

Three of us walked the Cleveland Way with Mickledore and were delighted with their efficiency and consideration. Two of us walked Hadrian's Wall with them 3 years ago and returned to them because of our positive experience in to 2015

lovely and uncomplicated walking tour on the South Downs Way

I made this tour on my own and it was very nice, to have comfortable and friendly accomodations during my walking holiday.

Walking along the Hadrian's wall

The holiday was fantastic, the walkingtrack was beautiful and we had no rain, only sun, which is extraordinary . The bed and breakfastplaces were beautiful houses with comfortable rooms on nice locations and not to far to travel to at the end of the day. There was great hospitality from all the hosts.

The maps and other information we recieved before we started with our holiday, were very good. We got an e-mail to remember us of paying on time and to confirm when we had payed. It was easy to get in contact with Mickledore We could walk along the track in the aomount of days we wanted. The bed and breakfast places were booked for us with good distances in between.

Coast to Coast by Chris, 14 Jul 2018

Our wonderful Coast to Coast walk

We walked Wainwright's coast to coast 192 miles in June. The weather was exceedingly kind to us with sunshine and dry days throughout. The scenery was stunning and exceeded our expectations. We particularly loved Swaledale. I must have taken over 1000 photos along the way.

Mickledore delivered a superbly organised walking holiday. Everything ran to perfection, from the Sherpa van transport of our bags, and our drop off in St Bees to start the walk and pick up in Robin hood's Bay.Parking our car in the Sherpa van compound worked really well for us too. All the B&Bs were of a very high standard and many had baths! Mickledore listened to what we wanted in terms of mileage each day and devised an excellent itinerary. This was our second experience of the company and we will definitely book with them again.

Wonderful Walk with Mivkledore

We walked St Oswald’s Way from Lindisfarne to Humshaugh and then continued sling Hadrian’s Wall Path to Bowness on Solway. St Oswsld’s Way was not well marked in places inland, but that was a minor issue. We very much enjoyed both paths! Mickledore did another fabulous job selecting B&B’s.

The experience of a lifetime

Two weeks walking Coast to Coast from St Bees to Robin Hoods Bay was the best experience and a real challenge. I loved how our fitness levels improved day by day. The camaraderie of fellow walkers and the welcome from our overnight hosts at accommodation along the way made it special too. Everything to make our day easy was organised - starting with a hearty breakfast and to get us on our way packed lunches. Drying rooms to sort out our wet ...

Two weeks walking Coast to Coast from St Bees to Robin Hoods Bay was the best experience and a real challenge. I loved how our fitness levels improved day by day. The camaraderie of fellow walkers and the welcome from our overnight hosts at accommodation along the way made it special too. Everything to make our day easy was organised - starting with a hearty breakfast and to get us on our way packed lunches. Drying rooms to sort out our wet gear and comfortable ensuite rooms, meant that we could relax and enjoy our route planning, all the details were taken care of. Luggage always got to where it was meant to be and on time. Mickledore picked some great B&B's and small Inns, which would have meant a lot of research if I tried to find similar myself. When I needed to call the office someone was there to help. Loved every minute of the holiday even the rain and sore feet!

Rating for tour operator:

Mickledore are an experience walking tour holiday company based in the English Lake District. They have many years experience of what walkers need and provide different options for walks in England over different lengths of days depending on how much time you can spend walking. In short they know their stuff.
