    Walking holiday with baggage transfer on the Cleveland Way, we were a party of 2 at the beginning and joined by a third individual for the coastal section, the potential for confusion was high but it all worked very well.

    Very helpful with good advice about things outside their remit. All of the transfers worked well their choice of accommodation was good to splendid. Their information pack was supplied in a timely manner and more comprehensive than any I’ve seen from other providers.

    We booked a five day walking tour through the Lake Distrcit which has amazing scenery. The itinerary was well organized starting with a forest walk, onto another walk of beautiful green rolling hills, and, of course, lots of lakes.

    Mickledore was always responsive from my first contact over the internet to the end. The arrangements of baggage transfers, transfers for us to the beginning of trails and from the end of trails, and detailed itineraries of where to walk were all done efficiently.

    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.

Client Feedback

By my reckoning, there have been nine walking holidays so far.  Earlier this year I completed the latest one.  The Pennine Way in celebration of my 70th birthday.  On this, as with all my other walks, I found the arrangements to be faultless.  This is why I keep returning to Mickledore.  It means that I can start each walk with complete confidence that the only thing that could go wrong is me!  My thanks to all at Mickledore!

Keren Lloyd Bright, Oxford Pennine Way, May 2024

Our first time doing this type of holiday and we were very impressed with the seamless transfers from accommodation and the level of detail in the holiday pack.

Vicky Evans, Derbyshire Fife Coastal Path, September 2025

Our 5th trip with you – always 10/10!

We walked another section of the SW Coastal Path, from St Ives to Coverack, supported as always by the reliable and wonderful Mickledore! Superb scenery, sunshine on tap, great accommodation and delicious food mostly fish and other local Cornish produce. So many iconic locations on this part of the path – St Michael’s Mount, Mousehole, The Lizard and Land’s End. Highly recommended (but the walking is tough!).

Grading System

The grade reflects the overall difficulty of the walk and takes into account the overall length of the route and how far you walk each day. It also includes how much ascent and descent there is, what kind of terrain the route crosses, and how good the going is underfoot. We also consider how well the route is signposted and whether the route presents any navigational challenges.

Easy

These are our easiest walks, covering flat and undulating terrain, and usually not more than 12 miles a day. Paths and tracks are generally well defined and well maintained. Navigation is usually straightforward.

Easy - Moderate

These holidays have an average of 15 miles a day or less on mostly rolling countryside and well defined paths, with some sections in more hilly terrain. There may be some bigger climbs, up to 250m, but not every day. For our self guided holidays we recommend you can navigate from a map.

Moderate

With a maximum of 20 miles a day these holidays typically cross more remote mountain and moorland terrain for more than one day, with total climbing of up to 1000m. Whilst most of the route follows well defined paths, there may be sections where the path is indistinct, so you need to be able to navigate with a map and compass for these walks.

Moderate - Challenging

With a maximum of 24 miles, much of the route will be over remote mountains and moorland, and there will be sections of rough or boggy ground and indistinct paths. Competence with a map and compass is essential.

Challenging

Similar to four boots, but many days will involve total climbing of up to 1200m, with significant time spent in mountainous and moorland terrain. There will be some long days out, so you need stamina! You will need to be an experienced and fit walker, confident in the mountains and on the moors in poor weather. Again, competence with a map and compass is essential.
