Why Choose Mickledore?

We are one of the leading specialists in self guided walking holidays, with 15 years experience, and a small, dedicated team of walkers and cyclists. We’re still small enough to give each holiday the individual attention it deserves – it matters to us that you have a good time!

We specialise in UK holidays, and by concentrating on what we consider to be the best routes, we get to know the trails, accommodation, and local area really well. Accommodation is critical to your holiday and we make a special effort to find the hidden gems. Whether you are staying in a village inn, farmhouse B&B, country hotel, or local guesthouse, you can be sure it has been selected for its comfort, welcome, and character.

You have 100% financial protection – we are fully bonded through the ABTOT, so you are fully covered against our financial failure.
