Coast to Coast

Walking the C2C with baggage transfer. had a great time meeting lots of people on the way. As we kept criss - crossing each other friendships were made and these made the walk more enjoyable. Although we had a couple of days with rain following Storm Hector we were lucky in the weather became warmer and sunnier as we reached the halfway point. Then as everyone else in the UK we had wall to wall sunshine and good weather making the views even better...

Although we had a couple of days with rain following Storm Hector we were lucky in the weather became warmer and sunnier as we reached the halfway point. Then as everyone else in the UK we had wall to wall sunshine and good weather making the views even better. The welcome sight of Robin Hoods and the finish after 200 miles was greeted with a welcome pint or 2 in the Bay Horse. After the customary dipping of the feet and dropping the pebble in the sea. Memorable all the way.

Mickledore booked all our accommodation and baggage transfers. All the B & B's were good to excellent and everything went smoothly. They had Some great stopovers and lovely landladies etc. too many to single out. Would certainly use them again.

South Downs Walk

We walked from Winchester to Eastbourne along the South Downs Way. The scenery was fantastic, and we enjoyed the people we met along the way.

Rating for tour operator:

The accommodations were excellent, and the luggage transfer went perfectly. There was a small glitch with a local taxi company, and Mickledore fixed it promptly. We were very pleased with the service.

Lady Annes Way by Sam, 3 Jul 2018
Holiday Rating:

Very enjoyable and well-organised walk

I did the Lady Anne Way in Yorkshire at the start of June 2018. The walk is generally a very nice one although a little uneven in terms of the length of the days and a bit overgrown in some parts near the end. But I went through spectacular scenery and having the historical links along the way added interest.

I was with Mickledore. I thought they were very good. The holiday arrangements were all managed very efficiently and they were very friendly. One of my hosts had had an accident the day I was supposed to stay and was in hospital but when I rang Mickledore for help the phone was answered promptly and the lady at the other hand managed all the new arrangements with great efficiency and friendliness which is exactly what is needed in that situation.

Mickledore Travel responded to this review on 10 Jul 2018:

It is great that overall you enjoyed your walk. To make an itinerary work where some sections are quite remote it can lead to some days being longer than others. Thanks for the lovely comments about our team, we will always try our best to help if unexpected things happen during your holiday.

Excellent organisation

Walking coast to coast, supported by Mickledore.

Rating for tour operator:

Excellent from the outset, from the date of booking, to overnight stays and the information pack, maps and complimentary Stedman edition of the walk. Their chosen accommodation was comfortable, clean and contained all that we needed. The listings of eateries, atm's and taxi firms if needed is good. I am looking forward to using this company for when I book my next walking holiday.

It is lovely to hear that you enjoyed your walk and found the information that we sent in your holiday pack to be useful. We will be very happy to welcome you back for your next walking adventure. Thank you for your great feedback.

Brilliant!

A long distance walk through lovely and sometimes remote countryside. All accommodation was excellent and no problems with the baggage transportation service.
