St Cuthberts Way Traveller Reviews

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.

This was our first organised walking holiday. Mickledore booked the rooms, arranged packed lunches where possible and arranged for our baggage to be at the next stop. It all worked smoothly. The choice of places to stay overnight was good. I will certainly use Mickledore again.

They were easy to communicate with and sent us an excellent information pack with everything we needed to know and more.

Walking the St Cuthbert's Way with very good weather.

Very efficient service. Initial inquiry received a quick response. All the accommodation was booked and information with full details of the walk and available services along the way was very helpful and thorough. Everything worked smoothly including taxi transfers to accommodation that was some distance from the walking route.

We walked St Cuftberts Way from Melrose to Lindisfarne. It was both brilliant and beautiful. Mickeldore were exceptional in all respects - the whole experience far out weighed our expectations.

Outstanding customer service, attention to detail, organisation and communication. We could not have asked for more.

I probably would never have thought of doing this if it had not been for the travel restrictions imposed by covid but I'm so glad I did. Did it solo/self guided and loved it. The information pack sent by mickledore was very concise and covered every conceivable need and eventuality ( fortunately mostly not needed) making me feel safe at all times ( important for a female travelling alone) and the accommodation delightful. I would not hesitate to recommend this holiday and tour operator to anyone else considering the same

Briiliant support and information pack. Accommodation lovely and baggage transport seemless. All I had to do was walk. What's not to love!!

A smashing walking holiday in the Scottish Borders and Northumberland. Tailored to our preferences for length of day walk, excellent B&Bs and small inns and hotels, luggage reliably transported for us, and with all routes, maps and tips supplied. All Covid secure. Just the break we needed.

Mickledore could not have been more helpful and provided all the information we needed. Also, we had some unusual dietary requirements, and all our hosts were prepared for this.

We spent 5 days walking St cuthberts way. The scenery was beautiful with variable countryside and views. lovely accommodation with friendly hosts and delicious food.

They organised our holiday to suit our requirements. This was undertaken quickly and efficiently with excellent communication throughout the whole process. It took all the stress out of organising a walking holiday

6 day walking holiday - St Cuthbert's Way

Most impressed with Mickledore who due to Covid agreed to convert our deposit for a long haul trip with their sister company to a staycation. Every tiny detail of our trip had been considered and arranged. Very noticeable was that all the B&B and hotel owners and taxi companies we were booked with enjoyed working with the company and had respect for its efficiency and maintenance of high standards
