Holiday rating

A variation on the standard West Highland Way but with stops to accommodate our health needs. This year we completed the last section from Bridge of Orchy to Fort William during September with extra stop overs, at a time of year which puts the tour operators under a lot of pressure. The month was important for us not only because of the reduction in midges because September is blood cancer awareness month and I wanted to raise awareness for the work of Anthony Nolan. A superb walk with a lot of international participation. The accommodation was perfect and even the weather was kind to us. A trip to remember.

Mickledore are so professional in putting together all the customer requirements. The route of the walk is well known but the participants are of different ages, backgrounds, accommodation requests and have individual special requirements. The complexity of something which on face value appears simple needs staff who actually know the details, and Mickledore do. The excellent information package prior to going and the knowledge that they are available if anything goes wrong means that there is complete peace of mind. A really good example of good customer first focus.

We walked the Cleveland Way in May. 110 miles over 11days. Accomodation was varied including village pubs, B&Bs and even a beautiful 4* country house hotel. The route was generally well sign posted and we enjoyed a great contrast in scenery, walking through farmland, woodland and moorland, and then along the beautiful coastal path. Taxi transfers were included where accomodation was too far off route, luggage transfers worked effectively and everything went to plan.

We love the fact that Mickledore has a great range of long distance walks and plenty of options for slower walkers, such as ourselves, with lower mileage each day. Mickledore are consistently good in their communication with clients and we were impressed that they responded personally to us regarding our feedback on the accomodation in a couple of remote locations where standards were less than ideal – they indicated that they would look at better options in future, even if it involved taxi transfers. Overall, we had a great holiday and feel that Mickledore genuinely have clients’ best interests at heart.

Great walking trail from north Glasgow to Fort William. Lucky to have had good weather and great accommodation arranged for me with baggage transferred. I added an extra night in Fort William to give me the opportunity to climb Ben Nevis.

Mickledore are a great company to use when booking your UK based walking holidays. They have lots of knowledge and experience and are easy to talk to. I managed to get all my accommodation on the route and was very happy with all the places I stayed at. This is the first time I have used them as I have only just developed an interest in long distance trails and will definitely be using them again. They provide you with an excellent pack with detailed information to help with your trip.

Client Feedback

Working with everyone at Mickledore was a FANTASTIC experience! It could not have gone any better. Everything was top-notch, and every penny I spent was worth it. You all were responsive, professional, and efficient. Very impressive. I’ve already recommended Mickledore to several friends and fellow walkers!

Elise C, USA Cleveland Way, July 2023

Your whole team is great, we had a marvellous trip and we are very grateful.

Mark Weiner, USA St Cuthbert’s Way, May 2025

This is our 4th holiday with Mickledore and they are always efficient, friendly and reliable. This one was booked at the last minute, Mickledore came up trumps!
