Superb Lakeland Walk

Mickledore put everything in place to enable two of us to have a happy and relaxing few days in the Lake District, walking the Inn Way.

Mickledore arranged the accomodation for our Inn Way Lake District week, send us maps and guides, and dealt efficiently with our needs (one twin, one double). Their app helped us find our way to each new inn or b+b. Very responsive to emails and phone calls.

Lovely Lake District Walking Tour

Walking trip round Lake District UK, staying in different place each night and walking between them. Baggage transported for us.

Mickledore arranged the accommodation and baggage transfer and were very flexible around dates and helped with parking etc. The route followed the Inn Way to the Lakes.

The Inn Way to the Lake District

We have had many walking holidays in the Lake District, usually renting a cottage for a week and planning a series of circular walks. The Inn Way allowed us to walk from place to place and thus see the Lake District in a different way, somehow closer to the land. Parts of the walk are in places which are not easily accessible by car so we saw places we'd never been able to visit before. The places we knew were often approached from a direction ...

We have had many walking holidays in the Lake District, usually renting a cottage for a week and planning a series of circular walks. The Inn Way allowed us to walk from place to place and thus see the Lake District in a different way, somehow closer to the land. Parts of the walk are in places which are not easily accessible by car so we saw places we'd never been able to visit before. The places we knew were often approached from a direction new to us. Walking the Inn Way improved our overall understanding of the geography of the Lake District and greatly enhanced our appreciation of all that makes it so special Everywhere we went we met warm and friendly people who made time to talk and were genuinely interested in where we'd come from and where we were going.

Rating for tour operator:

Mickledore's arrangements for route planning, overnight stays and luggage transport were excellent and helped to make the Inn Way particularly enjoyable. We were impressed by the care taken by the company to ensure the safety of its clients. On a day that we were rather late getting to our B&B a member of Mickledore's team took the trouble to contact us to ensure we were safe. The company asks for feedback and takes seriously the comments and suggestions it receives. Highly recommended.

Thank you very much for your feedback. Walking holidays are, as you say, a great way to explore areas that are less accessible and we are happy to hear that you enjoyed your adventure. While you are walking we want you to not have to think about us, but we are always there to help and are always making sure you are safe. We would love to organise another holiday for you so we look forward to hearing from you again.

Always cater for the individual booking

We were walking the Inn Way in the Lake District. We like walking onto a different destination and Mickledore are brilliant at the logistics of booking the forward destinations and ensuring your luggage is always there. You can just get up and go, looking forward to a good days walking. Friends laughed at the prospect of us including 44 pubs on our walk but really it was about the circular route and linking in with some areas previously visited ...

You can just get up and go, looking forward to a good days walking. Friends laughed at the prospect of us including 44 pubs on our walk but really it was about the circular route and linking in with some areas previously visited when we did the C2C. I prefered this walk, I liked that we stayed in small villages or B&B that wouldnt get the C2C trade. There were less people walking and we got to see more of the Lake District itself. Some hard days walking.

Rating for tour operator:

We've just walked The Inn Way with the help of Mickledore Travel. This is the 3rd trip we have used them. Even on an established route, you never feel that you are just a number or just "a booking". Your requests are listened to & every attempt is made to cater for them. You dont end up staying or walking en mass with other people on the same holiday. Feedback is actively encouraged and Im sure is listened to.Our experiences with Mickledore mean they are our "go to" company when researching or planning our next walk. I always recommend Mickledore to people when talking about walking holidays. Their walkers holiday pack, maps, routes, guide book, accomodation lists etc is very comprehensive.

Thank you for your fabulous feedback, we are pleased to hear that you had a great time and were happy with our service once again. We do encourage feedback as it is extremely important to us to hear our customers views - we take this into account when reviewing our accommodation and existing routes and also when we develop new ones. I do hope that we can arrange another holiday for you very soon.
