Beautiful and rewarding

My holiday walking the Northumberland Coastal Path was perfectly organised and all went very well. From accommodation to documentation, all was really high quality. The walk and holiday itself - blessed by very fine weather - was beautiful, with scenic views and fine routes.

Better than anticipated

Great walking holiday following the Northumberland Coast Path from Cresswell to Berwick Upon Tweed. It is a part of the country I am not familiar with but loved the wide open vistas, extensive beaches, castles and warm friendly people. We also had excellent local food.

Northumberland Coastal Path Walk

My elder brother and I travelled 300miles north to stay in Morpeth, Northumberland for our first night's stay. The following day we began a 6-day walking adventure at the start of the Northumberland Coastal Path, from Cresswell, and we walked the 62-mile route to Berwick-upon-Tweed, with a stop-over day at Fenwick to visit Lindisfarne (or Holy Island).

I have used Mickledore Travel in the past when organising the Coast-to-Coast (St.Bees Head to Robin Hood's Bay) a few years ago. I am always impressed by the standard of accommodation they manage to arrange and for the meticulous planning and information that they provide, from walking maps and guide books, to general information regarding shops, bars, cafes, doctors, toilets and other essentials along the route. The onward transportation of our luggage is always first rate with no mistakes made on either trip. They were brilliant from start to finish.

Mickledore is very accurate. They provide an excellent service. Their communication is very good. When things change, you hear it immediately. The guesthouses, B&B’s, hotels were very good, The hosts very friendly. Mostly big rooms, very hygienic.

Made our wishes come true

We wanted a walking holiday with a difference so we mixed and matched what was possible. The booking was done last minute and we did not doubt that Mickledore Travel found a way. We walked the Northumbrian Coast Path from start and ended on the magical place on the Holy island, Lindisfarne This is not our first time with Mickledore so we knew the accomodation was perfect, nothing to worry about and all hotels along the route was payed so ...

The company that picked up our luggage did their bit. Outstanding and all maps, guides, extra info was included in that package. We had to pack our own suitcase and the rest was done by Mickledore If you are looking for a company that does everything else than get you to the starting point then try out Mickledore. They are a bit more than a travel agent they become your best friend 😁

Stunning Coastline walking The Northumberland Coastal Path

We are 4 adults walking up to 15 miles a day along an unspoilt piece of England's coastline. Apart from the last day, when there was a 'severe weather warning', the weather was quite kind to us.

Mickledore arranged all our accommodation for each of the 6 nights walking, plus an extra night when travelling to the start of the walk. They also organised the moving of our luggage on to the next accommodation and to our delight, the luggage always turned up. We also opted for packed lunches, where available, which again worked out very well.

Mickledore Travel responded to this review on 21 Jun 2019:

It is great that you enjoyed your walk and that the luggage service and packed lunches gave you more freedom to just enjoy the experience. Thank you for leaving us your feedback.
