St Bees to Kirkby Stephen - a six day walk through the Lakes

Our party of two completed the first part of the Coast to Coast route over six days in September. The route information and the standard of accommodation booked by Mickledore were excellent. The daily mileage was easily manageable and the inclusion of various alternative routes was well thought out.

enjoyable holiday on the whole

For me, all of the accommodation, needs to be of a standard offered by either Redmayne House or Lee-Side. I understand that this may not always be possible as it is dependent on geographical location etc. But it is not only the comfortableness, but also the character of and history associated with the accommodation that is important when staying in a place even for such a short time.

Fantastic experience, well-organised trip with superb accommodation - one of our best holidays ever

Having had a big trip to South Africa cancelled, we were really keen to have an activity holiday in this country and the Coast to Coast walk was something we had always planned to do. When we saw that Mickledore offered a Coast to Coast holiday we jumped at the opportunity, particularly as accommodation on this long distance walk normally gets booked up very quickly. It turned out to be a wonderful trip with great walking, beautiful scenery ...

Mickledore are a partner company to KE travel who we had our original holiday booked with. They were very efficient, quick to respond to any queries and provided with lots of well- researched information about the trip. We were extremely impressed with their service.

Essentially only email contact with one phoneed in question. I was given sufficient information to do the hike on my own with the occasional helpful interactions from fellow travelers I met on the way.

Coast to Coast an amazing, fabulous, memorable walking holiday.

Everyday was different on the Coast to Coast walking holiday. The trails were fantastic and the views were breathtaking. From the high level walks and tremendous views where we could see for miles, to the lake and riverside strolls and beautiful dales pastures and moorland walks, everything was perfect, including the weather! Each night we had comfortable and homely stays and the hosts at each place we stayed were wonderful. I would recommend ...

Rating for tour operator:

Mickledore were well organised from the moment I made the booking, advising on the best walking dates and booking accommodation accordingly. They took note of dietary requirements and stayed in touch by email. A few weeks before the holiday they provided a detailed information pack on the walk - maps, what to see and where to eat - and the accommodation. Accommodation was largely very good value. Great holiday.
