West Highland Way Traveller Reviews

We have used Mickledore fora number of years to manage logistics in booking accommodation and dealing with all aspect of our walking holiday in Scotland . We were keen to see the unspoilt Scottish country side and were not disappointed with some epic views on walking the two famous Scottish national trails.

Mickledore provide comprehensive information on the trip from details concerning the location and arrival details for each hotel/B&B , with useful information on amenities on route, from restaurants to places to grab a coffee on route. As a remote walk details on how to fuel on route is super important.

We walked the west Highland Way in September 2023. The organisation and quality of accommodation was top class. We had a wonderful time. Couldn't recommend highly enough.

Mickledore arranged the accommodation and transportation of our luggage. All the information provided was detailed and invaluable. Maps and guide books were easy to follow. I believe they thought of everything.

Walking the West Highland Way in Scotland

Mickledore Walking Holidays - very efficient and great customer service. I have used them twice and both holidays went without a hitch.

Our holiday was simply amazing. The team at Mickledore worked to arrange accommodations that were all great, clean, friendly, and comfortable. They all met or exceeded our expectations. the highlight of our stay were the meals at Inverornan. they were truly amazing. the guide books and suggestions provided helped make are trip seamless from beginning to end.

Mickledore was extremely professional and helpful. They worked hard to find accomdations and make are holiday work. they were also helpful in providing contacts to hire a car in fort William, and a contact to assist in booking rail reservations to get us to Milngavie and back to Edinbourgh from Ft William.

My friends and I have walked with Mickledore on a previous occasion, on the Coast to Coast in England. Having enjoyed that so much, we then booked the West Highland Way and Great Glen Way in Scotland for our next walking adventure. It was everything we could have wished for, supported by the wonderful organisation and expertise that Mickledore offered.

Mickledore offer a wide range of walks in the UK to suit all abilities and tastes. The pre-departure support is fantastic, with excellent, prompt communication and the provision of a very comprehensive holiday package providing all the information you could possibly need, along with great guide books, maps and walking notes. The accomodation they select and book is always of a high standard with lovely hosts, and luggage transfer is seamless.

Our trip in October was better than we hoped and every mile brought on a new sense of magic only the highlands can offer with their majestic backdrop. Rainbows and some rain, tons of waterfalls, moors and mountains, castles and historic buildings along the way made this vacation unforgettable.

We can't imagine doing a walk without their careful help and planning. They reached out pre-trip to warn about some potential rain-related detours! They manage to find us the most bespoke accommodations and interesting places to visit and we can't thank them enough for making our hiking holidays so amazing.

From start to finish, Mickledore took care of every detail so I could focus on completing this once in a lifetime, epic journey. Knowing I was i good hands with them, I throughly enjoyed every aspect of every day, was successful in walking to completion, and I owe a big part of that to MIckledore.

smooth booking from beginning to end.

We walked the West Highland Way and Mickledore arranged each of our accommodations along the way and also arranged the transport of our luggage between each accommodation. Every accommodation was very good and everything went very smoothly

They organised each accommodation faultlessly and were very helpful on the phone when I lost my paperwork and emailed it to me straight away.

What a superb Westhighland Way walking holiday we have just had . It was well worth the wait after being previously cancelled due to the Covid pandemic. We walked the WHW over 7 days with one rest Day at the fabulous Kings House in Glencoe surrounded by the majestic black mountains Our highlights were:- The views of Loch Lomond on top off a very blustery conic hill The exciting walk and scramble along the lock side with the most stunning views of the Loch Lomond and soaking our feet in icy cold water of the Loch. Walking along Rannoch moor and reaching the Spectacular Kings House surrounded by the most stunning mountainous scenery Sheer bliss !! Great views everywhere which got better & better as we progressed from the lowlands to the highlands. A great variety of terrain from Country lanes rocky paths Forrest paths Moorland ups and downs which we loved devils staircase and old military road. Loved having a new adventure every day and the lovely people we met along the way . The beautiful places where our B&B & hotel accommodations were. Loved all the places we stayed but especially Kinlochleven Kingshouse and Drymen The weather was very mixed from Heavy rain light rain drizzle and the occasional sunny spells. The rain didn’t spoil the holiday at all in fact it was very refreshing !! And made for photos with moody skies !! . Altogether a Superb Stunning Spectacular Westhighland Way holiday that will stay with us in our memories forever.
