    We did a 50 mile walk from Penzance to Falmouth staying in (mostly) traditional B’n’B places. Our luggage was transported each day by a courier firm leaving us to walk with just a day pack. The accommodation was excellent at every stop with very friendly and helpful staff at each location.

    Great support with loads of information about the route (including a Harvey’s map and Coastal Walk book), the places we were staying in and places to eat, both on route and in the evenings. Lots of good advice and tips. Good provision of help/emergency numbers for any problems (not needed by us, fortunately).

    We walked Hadrian’s Wall Path with Mickledore Travel, and had a wonderful time. We especially liked being able to add the option of daily packed lunches (most travel companies don’t). This meant we didn’t have to think about finding somewhere enroute, and could eat at our convenience, especially as options very limited in places. Hadrian’s Wall Path, for us, was a unique and very special walk due to the history.

    I was really impressed with how friendly, knowledgeable, well organised and professional they were. Everything they promised, they delivered, resulting in a wonderful holiday. We would definitely go with them again.

    I was having a wonderful hiking holiday when half way through I was struck down with a knee injury (not while hiking). Mickledore sorted everything for me. As I was on my own, a foreigner, staff phoned everyday checking on me and having a chat (she became my best buddy for a few days).

    Mickledore arrange hiking holidays. I found the accommodation ranged from standard to luxurious, especially with the B&Bs. We are provided with a water proof, tear proof map and one month free with OS maps offline. Mickledore have plotted the walk on OS maps, anytime I wasn’t sure where to go all I had to do was look at OS maps and follow the blue line. For someone with a poor sense of direction, this was so good and made me feel safe.

Client Feedback

We had a wonderful holiday. The weather was excellent, the walk superb and the pubs & B&B’s were good.

Mascha Lichtendahl, Netherlands Two Moors Way, September 2025

We have been on many walking holidays and have always used Mickledore. They are easily contactable. Provide superb information and only book good B&Bs, which they check regularly. What we like most is that they themselves do the walks, so they know exactly what they are like.

Barbara Foyston, Yorkshire Gower Peninsula, August 2024

It was the perfect holiday. You are lucky with your two Sarah’s they are superb people and planners.  My group had exactly ZERO problems along our trip and you also dialled up perfect weather for us.   I would gladly tell ANYONE to use your services of vacation planning.   10 of 10.  Have nothing to add in terms of anything to help improve your services.  It was perfect.

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.
