Coast to Coast Traveller Reviews

Having had a big trip to South Africa cancelled, we were really keen to have an activity holiday in this country and the Coast to Coast walk was something we had always planned to do. When we saw that Mickledore offered a Coast to Coast holiday we jumped at the opportunity, particularly as accommodation on this long distance walk normally gets booked up very quickly. It turned out to be a wonderful trip with great walking, beautiful scenery and very well run. We can’t wait to book the next one !

Mickledore are a partner company to KE travel who we had our original holiday booked with. They were very efficient, quick to respond to any queries and provided with lots of well- researched information about the trip. We were extremely impressed with their service.

It just worked like clockwork. Everything happened as it should and the accommodation was good. I would not hesitate to book with them again.

Mickledore are easy to deal with and trustworthy.

Self guided hiking tour with accommodations booked by Mickledore. Maps and direction book, detailed booklet to lodgings provided . Also a list of contact number.s.

Essentially only email contact with one phoneed in question. I was given sufficient information to do the hike on my own with the occasional helpful interactions from fellow travelers I met on the way.

Everyday was different on the Coast to Coast walking holiday. The trails were fantastic and the views were breathtaking. From the high level walks and tremendous views where we could see for miles, to the lake and riverside strolls and beautiful dales pastures and moorland walks, everything was perfect, including the weather! Each night we had comfortable and homely stays and the hosts at each place we stayed were wonderful. I would recommend this trip, unreservedly.

Mickledore managed all the accommodation, packed lunches and luggage transportation which made it easy for us to enjoy our walking holiday to the full.

First half of the Wainwright coast to coast walk across the Lake District - 95 miles in six days

Mickledore were well organised from the moment I made the booking, advising on the best walking dates and booking accommodation accordingly. They took note of dietary requirements and stayed in touch by email. A few weeks before the holiday they provided a detailed information pack on the walk - maps, what to see and where to eat - and the accommodation. Accommodation was largely very good value. Great holiday.

A 17 day trekking holiday through the Lakes District and the Yorkshire Dales from the east to west coast of England

Mickledore walking holidays. Booked all our accommodation. Arranged transfer of luggage each day

Impressively mountaneous scenery; varied landscape. Positive attitude and atmosphere amongs walkers and B&B hosts. Nice B&Bs and warm welcomes.

I like the challenge of walking and discovering beautiful new places, but not so much the challenge of organizing it all -> Mickledore takes care of that in a clear, pleasant and high-quality approach.

Part 1 of the Coast to Coast path, from the west coast to the east coast of England. Whereas Part 2 will follow next year, Part 1 is worth walking in its own right, and I am very pleased I have selected the same tour operator for Part 2. great walking, good accommodation, plentiful recommendations for evening meals and contact numbers for emergency support if so required.

Very courteous over the telephone when making stage payments towards paying off the holiday. Excellent details of holiday sent to me shortly after the holiday was paid off, enabling me to prepare for the holiday and add to its enjoyment. Part 2 of the walk is already booked with the same operator and I will certainly recommend and book further holidays with this operator in the coming years.

A great coast to coast walk well organised. Good accommodation, breakfasts either good or excellent, overall food and drink were an unexpected highlight of the trip.

Mickledore were well organised and responsive. I have only put good because I have not experienced other operators, they may well have been excellent.

My father in law, a walking veteran of some 60 years, said this was the most beautiful walk of his lifetime. He was not lying.

My second walk arranged by Mickledore and I couldn't be happier. Co-walkers experienced botched bookings and problems with hotels. I didn't have a single issue. The B&Bs were always acceptable-good standard, some were spectacular. I could concentrate on my walking and had no worries in the world.
