The experience of a lifetime
Two weeks walking Coast to Coast from St Bees to Robin Hoods Bay was the best experience and a real challenge. I loved how our fitness levels improved day by day. The camaraderie of fellow walkers and the welcome from our overnight hosts at accommodation along the way made it special too. Everything to make our day easy was organised - starting with a hearty breakfast and to get us on our way packed lunches. Drying rooms to sort out our wet ...
Two weeks walking Coast to Coast from St Bees to Robin Hoods Bay was the best experience and a real challenge. I loved how our fitness levels improved day by day. The camaraderie of fellow walkers and the welcome from our overnight hosts at accommodation along the way made it special too. Everything to make our day easy was organised - starting with a hearty breakfast and to get us on our way packed lunches. Drying rooms to sort out our wet gear and comfortable ensuite rooms, meant that we could relax and enjoy our route planning, all the details were taken care of. Luggage always got to where it was meant to be and on time. Mickledore picked some great B&B's and small Inns, which would have meant a lot of research if I tried to find similar myself. When I needed to call the office someone was there to help. Loved every minute of the holiday even the rain and sore feet!

They have many years experience of what walkers need and provide different options for walks in England over different lengths of days depending on how much time you can spend walking. In short they know their stuff.
Great feedback, thank you. It is lovely that you enjoyed your walk and the accommodations that we chose for you. I hope your sore feet have recovered now!

Coast to Coast
Walking the C2C with baggage transfer. had a great time meeting lots of people on the way. As we kept criss - crossing each other friendships were made and these made the walk more enjoyable. Although we had a couple of days with rain following Storm Hector we were lucky in the weather became warmer and sunnier as we reached the halfway point. Then as everyone else in the UK we had wall to wall sunshine and good weather making the views even better...

Although we had a couple of days with rain following Storm Hector we were lucky in the weather became warmer and sunnier as we reached the halfway point. Then as everyone else in the UK we had wall to wall sunshine and good weather making the views even better. The welcome sight of Robin Hoods and the finish after 200 miles was greeted with a welcome pint or 2 in the Bay Horse. After the customary dipping of the feet and dropping the pebble in the sea. Memorable all the way.

Mickledore booked all our accommodation and baggage transfers. All the B & B's were good to excellent and everything went smoothly. They had Some great stopovers and lovely landladies etc. too many to single out. Would certainly use them again.
It is great to hear that you had a fantastic experience on your walk and made some happy memories. We put a lot of effort into selecting the accommodations that we use and it is lovely that you enjoyed your stays with them. Thanks for taking the time to leave us your comments.

Excellent from the outset, from the date of booking, to overnight stays and the information pack, maps and complimentary Stedman edition of the walk. Their chosen accommodation was comfortable, clean and contained all that we needed. The listings of eateries, atm's and taxi firms if needed is good. I am looking forward to using this company for when I book my next walking holiday.
It is lovely to hear that you enjoyed your walk and found the information that we sent in your holiday pack to be useful. We will be very happy to welcome you back for your next walking adventure. Thank you for your great feedback.

Very pleased. Good organisation and communication. 80% of the B&Bs were good or excellent. One had a medical emergency on the day and two were a bit tired looking - but overall very good/excellent.
It is great that you had an enjoyable overall holiday experience for your walk. We do review the accommodations that we use so it is always helpful to hear your comments.Thank you for sending us your feedback.

A perfect Coast to Coast walk arranged by Mickledore Travel
My husband & I had a lovely 15 day walk across England on the Coast to Coast route. Lodging, bag transport, and lunches were expertly arranged by Mickledore Travel. After a "full English" breakfast provided by our lovely B&B hosts, we set out across England. We traversing three stunning National Parks (Lake District, Yorkshire Dale and the North York Moors). The diversity of the scenery and villages was wonderful. We have done many long walks ...

Mickledore Travel expertly arranged our lodging, bag transport, and lunches on the Coast to Coast walk in England. Their pre-trip package contained everything we need to know before and during our adventure. The quality of the B&B and inns booked were outstanding! Each one unique, friendly, clean, convenient and thoroughly enjoyable at the end of a long day of walking. On our flight to England one bag was misplaced by the airlines. Mickledore handled the logistics with the airlines and made sure our bag was delivered en route to us.
Thanks for your lovely comments. We always look for the best accommodations with friendly and welcoming hosts and it is great to hear how this helped you to enjoy your walk. We hope to arrange your next UK walking adventure for you.

We loved our Coast to Coast holiday organized by Mickledore!
Our Coast to Coast hiking holiday, completed Sept. 28, 2017, was an adventure of a lifetime! We thoroughly enjoyed every aspect of our vacation. The scenery was spectacular, the accommodations fabulous, the weather was nearly perfect, the beer and meals delicious, and every detail was perfectly prearranged through Mickledore. We would highly recommend this hike to anyone and certainly strongly encourage those thinking of tackling this hike ...

We recently completed our second Coast to Coast adventure utilizing Mickledore to make all the arrangements for luggage transport, lodging and pack lunches for our entire holiday. Every detail of our 17 days trekking across England was meticulously arranged for through Mickledore. We found the B&B’s to be convenient, first-class establishments, hosted by friendly, caring owners who catered to our every need. We will certainly be returning to complete other hikes in England and will most assuredly be working with Mickledore to make sure our holiday is as successful as this one was.
Thanks for such lovely comments. It is great that you enjoyed your trip and that the arrangements we made for your holiday helped you to have a fantastic experience. We will be pleased to arrange another walk for you to further explore the UK.

Challenging but worthwhile waking holiday
To the team at Mickledore, Please can I thank you all for the amazing walking Holiday that Mr Harrison and I had on the C2C walk Firstly the information pack that we received prior to the start date of the 5th July was very comprehensive, with everything anyone should need before, during and after the holiday.

The organisation of this trip far outweighed our expectations, all of the accommodations were very welcoming , clean , comfortable and helpful from the minute we arrived to the time we set off on our next day's walk Reasons for downgrades is not due to any concerns we had it's is just that the high standards of some of the B&B's Frith Lodge & Langstrath Arms were of a particularly high standard The Pack ups were very good from all of the places that we stopped at and the meals very good and a lot of thought gone into what walkers required with plenty of choice , nutritious & reasonably priced. Our Luggage was collected every morning and on arrival at our destination was left in a safe location

We had no reason to have any complaints about anything during our 11 days walking and stopping at reservations made by Mickledore All you need to do is be prepared for a challenge walk, turn up and start walking from the west Coast to the east coast and enjoy the experience Excellent service from the team at Mickledore
We put a lot of effort into finding the best accommodations and it's great that you found them to be so welcoming and helpful during your walk. When you stay somewhere that you find exceptional it can really stand out and it's lovely that two of our accommodations were exceptional for you. Thanks for your great review.
