Brilliant organising and planning from Mickledore
I walked the Northumberland Coastal Trail solo using Mickledore. It was booked the day before I started and they made sure that maps and guide were delivered. The coastal trail is a lovely walk that includes some stunning scenery. If I did this again, I would include a visit to Holy Island, and stay an extra day near the Causeway.

Their service and choice of accommodation is excellent, and I will be booking with them again.
Thank you for your kind comments, I'm pleased that we had this last minute availability and were able to arrange the trip for you. We would be happy to arrange another holiday for you in the future.

Great planning and organisation
This was a walking holiday on the coast to coast route from St Bees to Robin Hood's Bay. This involved staying in a different hotel or B&B every night and transporting my suitcase from place to place as well. The walk was a fantastic experience and I loved every minute. In retrospect, I would make some minor changes, but I am already considering doing it again.

I used Mickledore Travel to book a 17 day walking holiday. They booked my overnight stops, organised my suitcase to magically appear at the right place every night and arranged for packed lunches to be provided. Everything worked perfectly, there were no hitches at all. The value of using Mickledore was illustrated when one hotel unexpectedly closed down, after accepting my booking. Mickledore acted quickly to find an alternative, making this a non-issue for me.
Thank you for your feedback. I'm pleased to hear you had such a great experience and everything went according to plan.
You are right that sometimes situations do occur that cannot be avoided, but on the rare occasions that they do, we act quickly to resolve them and ensure that you can just enjoy your holiday. I'm happy to hear that you enjoyed it so much you are thinking of doing it again, and I hope that you will come back to Mickledore for this! Tara





Hadrian's Wall Holiday August 2016
A 8 days walk from Wallsend to Bowness on Solway. Excellent organisation by mickledore,selected hotels,farmhouses,village inns, guest houses or family B&Bs had been totally different but each accommodation for itself was worth staying overnight. The quality of the accomodations was very good, very friendly and helpful hosts. All in all we have had an unforgettable holiday and we will still remember this holiday for along time.

A 8 days walk from Wallsend to Bowness on Solway.

The quality of the accomodations was very good, very friendly and helpful hosts. All in all we have had an unforgettable holiday and we will still remember this holiday for along time. If somebody should ask me for a specialist in self guided walks in Great Britain i will recommend Mickledore.

Mickledore has an understandable homepage thereby simple holiday-booking via email. Staff on the phone very friendly, helpful and competent. Excellent, detailed documents for the walk. In my opinion a real specialist for self guided tours in Great Britain.
Thank you for such complimentary feedback about Mickledore. We agree that the variety of good quality accommodation that we select for our walks really does make an unforgettable holiday. We are glad that you found your hosts friendly and helpful and hope that you have fond memories of your walking holiday for many years to come. Gill.





Excellent carefree walking by the sea
Walking the Northumberland coastal path was brilliant and very well organised by Mickledore. We had fantastic weather and the changing coastline was great to see.

Mickledore took care of everything and all we had to do was turn up and walk each day carefree. They were brilliant.
We love how you have summarised your walk: "Excellent carefree walking by the sea". It sounds like you had a really enjoyable walk on the stunning Northumberland Coast. Thank you for your feedback, Lucy.





Well organized walking holiday
We did the 3-days walking holiday "Best of Hadrian's Wall". The walking isn't that easy, but thanks to our holiday package, we were well informed and prepared. The bed and breakfasts always gave us a niece and relaxing welcome after the effort, we were well taken care of, as well as guarding our independance.

The Mickeldore website was very clear and contact by mail always fast and friendly. We were surprised to get such a detailled holiday package, with guidebook, map and despriptive of every day and every place. We even helped other people on the trail who were not so well informed! The bed and breakfast places were very nice.
Thank you for your feedback on your Hadrian's Wall walk. We are glad that the information provided by Mickledore helped you and others to find your way! We are happy that you were well looked after by your hosts and overall it sounds like you had a relaxing and enjoyable walk. Thanks again, Lucy.

A very well organised holiday
My wife and I walked along Hadrian's Wall, from Corbridge to Carlisle during the last week of July. The accommodation organised for us by Mickledore was very good, as were the pubs they recommended for evening means. Everything worked out perfectly

Mickledore promised to organise everything perfectly for us and they didn't let us down. They arranged very good accommodation and provided excellent tips for places to eat in the evenings. Our luggage duly arrived without a hitch and the walking/transport directions they provided were spot on. We would definitely use them again
Thank you for your feedback. Its great to hear that everything went according to plan. We put a lot of effort into organising things so that you only have to concentrate on walking, and it sounds like you did just that. I hope you will be back for another walk soon.

Highlights of Pembrokeshire Coastal path
Seamless arrangements, friendly and welcoming hosts and stunning coastal walks. I had no idea Pembrokeshire was so beautiful, totally unspoilt and that the weather could be fantastic!
