Cleveland Way Traveller Reviews

This was our first self guided walking holiday with Mickledore. We spent 10 days walking the Cleveland Way through magnificent landscapes of moor and coast. Every night we stayed in a wide variety of well chosen accommodation, most of it close to the Trail. Transfers were arranged to accommodation if it wasn't close to the route. Mickledore even arranged a rain free holiday!

Mickledore had the edge over other companies we have used. Documentation and accommodation were particularly good.

We walked part of the Cleveland Way. Mickledore took care of the arrangements and we didn’t have to worry about a think. Accommodation, breakfast, lunch, transfers and luggage all handled with great care.

Everything was planned and executed really well. Accommodation chosen was perfect. The information pack we received surpassed my expectations.

I booked with a company for the first time, usually fix everything myself. Mickledore arranged all my accommodation and provided detailed written info and tips about everything relevant on the trail. In mostly-beautiful weather, I could concentrate on the walking, knowing that overnight bookings were taken care of. I also like that you don't pay a fixed amount which includes having your luggage transported; it's an optional extra. That suited me well -- I prefer to tote my own stuff.

Mickledore worked promptly to create the schedule with limited notice. Their choices were very good. When a minor issue arose about who would provide a taxi to take me back to the trail, I emailed Mickledore out of office hours and the company sorted the matter double-quick.

9 days walking the Cleveland Way - point to point with baggage transfer. Blessed with good weather and very friendly accommodation hosts.

All the arrangements worked perfectly. We had an issue on 2 days with delayed baggage but Mickledore soon had it sorted

Enjoyable hiking on the Cleveland Way

Friendly and helpful

The Cleveland Way provides fantastic contrasts and anticipation of the next day was always a highlight. I've enjoyed the outdoors throughout my life and I found the break perfect for creating a space you can pause the rest of the world as you work through the gears to match the landscape.

The team at Mickledore pulled out the stops at very short notice to provide an itinerary that suited me and I would be happy to recommend them to anyone - very good accoommodation with very helpful hosts really helped at the end of a long day out and I'm already planning my next trip with Mickledore in mind.

We walked, ate, drank and relaxed for four days in a very beautiful part of the country - along the Cleveland Way.

Mickledore organised everything beautifully, including picking out the accommodation, arranged our bag transfers, and sorting out a rather complicated arrangement on the last day of our holiday. Their pack including all the information, guides, maps etc that were needed.

We walked part of the coastal section of the Cleveland Way in NE Yorkshire. The arrangements provided by Mickeldore were faultless: the b&bs, luggage transfers and maps and information provided were all excellent. Everything went without a hitch. This coastal route of the Cleveland Way is just right for those of us who do not wish to walk the whole of each day's section as it was easy to pick up a bus along the way. We might have cheated a bit on the walking now and then, but it meant we thoroughly enjoyed our holiday, notwithstanding the rather wet weather!

Mickledore take over all the arrangements of a walking holiday in Britain, leaving you to simply enjoy the holiday.

We hiked the Cleveland Way for 9 days. Took in some amazing scenery and little villages that were idyllic. Thoroughly enjoyable.

Mickledore arranged all the accommodation and luggage transfers. Their choice of accommodation was wonderful. They provided maps and a guidebook as well as other detailed information on each village and amenities. Their app was useful as it contained all that information in one handy location.

In May 2018 I walked the coastal stretch of the Cleveland Way from Saltburn to Filey. Mickledore Walking Holidays booked the accommodation and arranged the transfer of my suitcase so that I was free to simply walk from one location to the other. What I loved the most was being able to set my own pace and stop and observe the little things along the path. I saw a young weasel, a deer, pheasants, slow worms, seabirds galore, wild garlic, bluebells, broom, unfurling bracken fronds and so much more. No decisions to make - except what I wanted for breakfast and where to eat on an evening - and no compromises. Five days away felt like I had had a fortnight's holiday. I would encourage other women out there who want to do something like this but are anxious about doing it alone to just go for it. The hosts are expecting you so there was always the reassurance that if I hadn't turned up and hadn't phoned, someone would be looking out for me.
