Well-organised UK walking holiday in wonderful scenery

Great 7-day walking holiday following the Westmorland Way including the beautiful scenery of the Lake District. Well-organised by tour operator with a mix of nice B&Bs, pubs and hotels.

This was the fourth time I've travelled with Mickeldore Travel. They always arrange nice accommodation in good locations. They are easy to deal with and friendly. Mickledore Travel staff seem to put your enjoyment of your holiday at the top of their priorities. I highly recommend them.

Walking the Westmorland Way with Mickledore, a great experience.

This was a self-guided walk from Appleby to Arnside, 98 miles in total, across the historic county of Westmorland, with 4 days spent walking in the Lake District National Park. I chose the longest option of 9 days walking to take it at a more leisurely pace. I knew from previous experience (this was my 7th walk with Mickledore) that everything would be taken care of - maps, accommodation, details of places to eat, where to get cash, taxi transfers...

I wouldn't want to organise all that on my own.

I first booked this walk two years ago and finally made it to the start in Appleby at the third attempt. Mickledore dealt with all the disruption of Covid restrictions with great patience, booking and rebooking each of my 10 night stops every time my plans were disrupted. They are also on hand during the holiday, ready to come to the rescue in case of late arrival, or to solve unforeseen problems. I've already booked my Mickledore walk number 8 for next year, I think that says it all.

Great holiday with a walk along Westmoeland Way

Made excellent by the great planning by Micledore. We walked from Appleby in Westmorland to Arnside. All the overnight stay were very good some were excellent. The weather was varied and detail provided by Mickledore was a great help at the end of the day to find the exact place to stay

This is the second time we have used Mickledore and highly recommend them. The contact prior to the walk was excellent with friendly help. The documentation provided covered all aspects of the holiday and great attention was paid to the detail. As they say it's all in the planning and their plan big is excellent. Information before the holiday included the maps, the booklet, details of where to eat when we arrived at the guest house and detailed description and maps on how to get to the guest house.
