I completed the holiday by walking along the coast path to Berwick, where I spent the night before catching the train home.

Rating for tour operator:

Mickledore arranged excellent B and B for each night halt and provided all the information I needed along the way. This included a guide book and map of the walk (waterproof, although I completed in the dry!) tide and bus timetables, where to eat, shop and find other facilities. I didn't opt for packed lunches or baggage transfer, but these could be added to the package if wanted.
