Great cycling holiday!

I had a last minute opportunity for a 1week cycling holiday in my agenda but no time left to organise it all. Mickledore took all this on and did an excellent job! I choose to combine the C2C and Hadrian Cycleway routes to make it into a C2C2C. Mickledore had all accomdation booked in no time and my documentation pack was waiting for me at the first B&B. At each of the following B&B's I found a warm welcome, a comfortable bed and good food...

West Highland Way by Anne T, 6 Sep 2017

Fantastic trip--easy planning!

I walked the West Highland Way using Mickledore to arrange accommodation and baggage transfer. Everything was very smooth, and all information accurate. They were always quick to respond to questions. The holiday could not have been better!

Quick to respond with questions, easy to work with, everything went well as planned. Price seemed very fair! I have recommended them to friends and will use them again.

Well organised hiking holiday

Together with two friends I booked a hiking holiday to walk the West Highland Way in Scotland with Mickledore Travel. They provided us with all the information required to complete the walk safely. All our accommodation was pre booked, our luggage forwarded, and transfers organised where required. All we had to do was enjoy the hiking. Bed and Breakfast accommodation was of a high standard at 90% of locations, bearing in mind the remoteness ...

Together with two friends I booked a hiking holiday to walk the West Highland Way in Scotland with Mickledore Travel. They provided us with all the information required to complete the walk safely. All our accommodation was pre booked, our luggage forwarded, and transfers organised where required. All we had to do was enjoy the hiking. Bed and Breakfast accommodation was of a high standard at 90% of locations, bearing in mind the remoteness of some locations where only one hotel was available, it was obvious where more choice was available, we got the best. This was the second holiday we had booked with Mickledore travel, and would not hesitate in using them again in the future.

Mickledore is efficient, the planning is excellent. The information is perfect, they answer questions immediately. It is the third time we travel with them and we are planning to do so next summer. I absolutely recommend them.

Hadrian's Wall by Hadrian's Hikers, 31 Aug 2017

Fabulous holiday walking the Hadrian's Wall Way

Just back from 9 days of walking, with 2 relaxing rest days, along the Hadrian's Wall Way. Splendid views, great accommodation, delicious food, fascinating history and, as an added bonus, we managed to avoid the rain!

Rating for tour operator:

Mickledore did an excellent job of organising top class accommodation which provided welcoming hosts, very good rooms and tasty breakfasts. The maps and information provided were great and the luggage transfers worked seamlessly. They provided a great itinerary based on our wish for time to take in the scenery and the historical sights and also sorted parking and transport back to the start. Would highly recommend them.

Mickledore Travel responded to this review on 05 Sep 2017:

Thank you for your feedback , we put a lot of effort into sourcing great accommodation so it is great to hear that you enjoyed all of these and had such a good time. We would also like to claim credit for the weather but Im afraid this was not our doing!

Coast to Coast by JudithK, 31 Aug 2017

Fantastic time on the English Coast to Coast

We spent 3 weeks on the Coast to Coast path. Our trip was very well organised by Mickledore. They booked us into excellent b&b's, so all we had to do was walk and relax!

Rating for tour operator:

Mickledore provides the customer with very clear information about the things that they arrange. It's very pleasant that you can decide for yourself what you want to have arranged (only accommodation or more, such as packed lunches and luggage transfers). We were able to contact them at all times and they did an excellent job in finding the most fantastic places to stay.

Mickledore Travel responded to this review on 05 Sep 2017:

Thank you for your feedback, its great to hear that you enjoyed all of our accommodation choices, and congratulations on walking across the country !

stupendo

la mia prima vacanza in vera solitaria è stata organizzata in maniera ineccepibile, era tutto perfetto e non ho avuto alcun problema. è già il secondo viaggio e di sicuro, ce ne sarà un terzo! il Pembrokeshire Coast Path è stata una bellissima esperienza, che consiglio a molte persone, non è indispensabile percorrerlo tutto, magari anche solo alcuni tratti. viaggio fantastico!
