St Cuthberts Way Traveller Reviews

This is the second holiday we have booked through Mickledore. The planning and preparation was spot on. The walk went smoothly. We met some amazing people en-route. The walking was great. The accommodation was overall really good. Luggage pick-up went smoothly. Overall a very stress free experience. The climax was walking the Pilgrim's Route from the mainland to Lindisfarne in bare feet!

All communications are professional and timely. If you have to phone you are greeted by people living in this country. Very happy with the service we have received.

We walked St Cuthberts Way from Melrose in the Scottish Borders to Holy Island. A holiday that was both energetic and relaxing plus full of amazing scenery and interesting ancient buildings.

Mickledore yet again have provided us with another fantastic walking holiday. Everything worked like clockwork down to the last detail. We would highly recommend them.

We had a wonderful walking holiday. Everything was very well planned and organised. The distances to cover each day were thought out - with demanding days followed by less demanding days. They had anticipated every need, including a couple of taxi runs when we stayed off the route. All info and backup materials excellent. Couldn't ask for more

Mickledore is very friendly and helpful - this is the 2nd time we've used them and would thoroughly recommend them.

St Cuthbert s way with luggage transport was perfect! Great stays in Kirk Yetholm, Wooler and Lindisfarne itself. All organised for me complete with guidebook and maps.

Friendly, fast, communicative

It was a 7 day walking holiday from Melrose in Scotland to Holy Island in Northumberland. Beautiful landscopes and panorama’s. Very good accomodations and nice restaurants on the way. We were very pleased with our room with a view in our hotel on Holy Island.

Service is excellent, the touroperator reacts very quick when you have questions. Action are fast and adequate.

I took a week-long walking holiday along the St Cuthbert's Way, through the Scottish Border starting at Melrose and finishing at Holy Island off the Northumberland coast. The sense of peace and seclusion was welcome after a year of working 6-day weeks in hectic environments - with the bonus of decent B&B's or hotels at the end of each day's walk.

The holiday was arranged by Mickledore. The booking process is incredibly straightforward, the Mickledore website is clear and transparent and communications excellent. Everything you need is arranged and provided and you are confident that if you need any assistance they will do their best for you.

We booked the holiday last year. All the accommodation and luggage transfer was booked well in advance. The walking instructions arrived on time and were very clear. The walk was wonderful with the accommodation and food on the whole excellent.

The whole process from booking to execution went very smoothly. The accommodation was on the whole excellent (5 out of 7 nights and good on the other two. Would certainly recommend.

My wife and I came from America on a spiritual renewal leave and took the St. Cuthbert's Way. This was our very first walking holiday. Every landscape was picture-worthy, and it was a great way to not only see the Scottish and English countryside, but to have some quality time together in the quiet beauty of the country.

Mickledore Walking Holidays did an outstanding job of caring for all of the details of our holiday so that we never had to worry or doubt about the details and arrangements. We stayed at high quality hotels and Bed and Breakfasts, enjoyed warm hospitality, and wonderful food. The folks at Mickledore were professional and kind, and were quick, clear and helpful any time I had a question.

The route was broken up into easily walked sections. When ending at a village without accommodation the organised taxi service was excellent. All accommodation booked by Mickledore was good. We had a delightfully, memorable holiday.

Lovely lady chatted to us on the phone during our initial contact. She spend ages working out our start date re tides and accommodation on Lindisfarne. Very swift email exchanges and excellent package of information.

It was wonderful!!! One of the best walks ever- not too busy, diverse scenery, good trails, nice B and B’s. Excellent set up by Mickledore

Always responsive to us , and provided great resources. Also, they were highly spoken of by drivers and B and B owners/managers. This is the second time we’ve used them- hope to use them every time.
