Great Mickledore organisation equals another Great Walking Holiday

This was our sixth Mickledore walking holiday. Another well organised and very rewarding walk- the Northumberland Coastal Path.

Breathtaking holiday without a hitch

We had the wonderful experience of seven days walking the Dales Way a distance of approx 90 miles from the Yorkshire town of Ilkeley to the Lake District and Lake Winderemere. Each day we saw some breathtaking views from the River Wharfe as it winds it way through the Dales and then onto the bracken covered fells of Cumbria.We had overnight stays at some lovely accommodation from a farmhouse in the fells to a beautiful manor house in the dales...

Mickledore were exceptional from our original enquiry through to booking our accommodation and daily luggage transfer. The holiday pack from them included everything we needed for our holiday to be a great success.

very smooth and well organised

I walked the COtswold Way for nine days walking, 10 nights. All I had to do was put one foot in front of the other. I had good bed and breakfasts and walking solo was not a problem.

Breathtaking Walking Holiday along the West Highland Way

Completed walking the West Highland Way on September 10th. Highly recommended - both the walk and Mickledore Travel. We were fortunate to have perfect weather - sunny without being hot. There were two firsts for us on a long distance walk: having our baggage transferred and our accommodation booked for us. All we had to do each day was get up, eat breakfast, pack a day bag and walk, knowing that there was a room with our baggage ready and ...

Completed walking the West Highland Way on September 10th. Highly recommended - both the walk and Mickledore Travel. We were fortunate to have perfect weather - sunny without being hot. There were two firsts for us on a long distance walk: having our baggage transferred and our accommodation booked for us. All we had to do each day was get up, eat breakfast, pack a day bag and walk, knowing that there was a room with our baggage ready and waiting for us at our destination. The b&bs in particular were fantastic: Ashbank at Drymen, Tigh-na-Fraoch at Tyndrum and, just as we thought it could not get any better Allt-na-Leven at Kinlochleven. It made the walking so much more enjoyable and gave us time to pause, where we wanted, to take in the magnificent landscape, the panoramic views over lochs and rivers. And in the latter part of the walk, mountains wreathed in morning mist which the sun gradually burned off through the day.

Rating for tour operator:

Well organised. Answered immediately and fully various queries I had when booking the holiday. The standard of accommodation booked ranged from very good to outstandingly excellent. The baggage transfer did exactly what it said it would. I will be booking another holiday - Coast to Coast walk - with Mickledore for next year.

A Challenging Treat

'The secret is in the planning' is an entirely accurate description of what this holiday gave us - and we only had to decide how far to challenge ourselves. The daily walks were well judged - with 16 miles on one day (rather than a usual 11/12, but with a back out clause!) and the B&Bs excellent, particularly Bridge House at Cawfields (Twice Brewed). Most had a pub nearby for our evening meal. We were very grateful that the planning took the ...

The secret is in the planning indeed!

We walked Hadrians Wall Path with a group of friends. Our individual schedule fitted our capabilities. Accomodations were very good.

Mickledore arranged our route, B&B's on our way and transportation of luggage. They provided a lot of valuable information, very practical. We had a great trip, thanks to meeting our specific wishes needs!

We had a great time on the Coast to Coast Walk, organized by Mickeldore Travel

This was an amazing trip and a new adventure each day of the way. The C2C was harder than we expected and more rewarding than we expected with the landscape, flora and fauna changing every day. I just wished the UK would declare this an official Walk and devote some funding for better trail marking and maintenance!

All the arrangements were made promptly, as we directed and were executed flawlessly. We'd book with Mickledore again in the future!

Excellent Welsh experience

This was our first time walking in Wales and the Pembrokeshire Coast Path lived up to its reputation - some mixed weather, wonderful scenery and hospitable accommodation.
