Client Feedback

Never having hiked for six days in a row, and never having been in the Lake District before, we didn’t quite know what to expect. Despite occasional blisters we came through our experience with an appreciation for the Lake District and the people who live there that only trekking the long miles is likely to provide. In addition, staying in B and B’s was a great way to lighten (literally) our load along the way, and the excellent work of Mickledore in arranging our lodgings made our trip preparations much less demanding. They were extremely responsive to all questions we asked via emails in the months leading up to our walking holiday. We would not hesitate to use their services again and we are looking forward to completing our Coast to Coast walk as soon as possible.

I really enjoyed the walk – the scenery was very varied, the B&B’s were all good or excellent, some good places to eat and Taxi pick up on Holy Island was bang on time. I walked it over 4 days back packing – probably better to take 5/6 days as most people I met were doing. I was very happy with the holiday and look forward to my group walking the Cumbria Way with you at the end of September.

We want to thank you for the perfect organization of our walk on the Cotswold Way. A lovely region with various landscapes. The scenery reflects the calm, peaceful and gentle countryside. Wonderful towns with hospitable people. Every evening it was a surprise to discover the lovely places you had selected to rest our tired legs.

We would like to thank you for your efforts to organise our recent Coast to Coast walk. We were very pleased with your accommodation choices, and delighted that the luggage transfer arrangements worked seamlessly. The whole trip was wonderful – due in no small measure to your involvement. We walked for 16 days (with 2 rest days) – not a single problem the whole trip. A memorable experience for all the right reasons.

We would certainly use Mickledore again but we think that the level of the B and B’s was sometimes too high!

This has been a fantastic holiday and extermely well organised by Mickledore from all perspectives. Leaving you to arrange the accommodation, luggage drop offs and access took all the hassle out of booking the holiday ourselves, particularly as we came across many stranded walkers who had great difficulties at the pinch points in villages where rooms and eating places are few. Well done.

Thank you so much for your attention in 2014. We will have no hesitation in using you in the future.

Thank you very much. We enjoyed this holiday immensely. Walking the Pilgrim Way to Lindisfarne was, for us, very much a ‘walk of faith’ (and a little eerie with the seals crooning in the distance!).

The routes chosen by you were very nice as well as the accommodations – we got a good insight into the Lake District landscape and people. Thank you very much.

Thank you very much for organising our holiday which we enjoyed tremendously. The B and B’s were great as were the luggage transfers. Another long distance trail nailed!

We are very pleased with our holydays in the south downs. On short terms you managed to organize what showed up as an absolute wonderful 10 days holyday. The accommodation was excellent, a superb experience in itself, situated in wonderful towns and areas. We enjoyed the lovely landscapes and even the weather was perfect. We are so happy!
