St. Cuthbert's Way

I walked St. Cuthbert's Way earlier this month (June 3 - 12). It was perfect! All my luggage transfers and accommodations were first rate. I had a couple of transfers and they were prompt in picking me up.

This is my second trip with Mickledore Walking Holidays and I have found them terrific to deal with. There were no issues at all on this trip so I had no reason to make contact during my walk but I know they would have been right on it had there been. In planning the trip they were quick to respond and answer any questions. I am a big fan!

St. Cuthbert's Way 2024

We have an annual family hike on the British isles and this year we had decided on the St. Cuthbert's Way. Great walk, weather was fair to nice.

Mickledore (I have booked holidays with them for years now)is very reliable, very accommodating, very communicative, the holiday packages and information are top-notch, very responsive and they offer excellent value for money. The B&B's they book are always first class.

Stress Free Walking Holiday

This is the 4th walking holiday we have taken with Mickledore and they have all been fabulous. This holiday - St Cuthbert's Way from Melrose in the Scottish Borders to Holy Island in Northumberland - was beautiful from start to finish. All our accommodation was excellent and included breakfast and a packed lunch. Our luggage was transported for us so that all we had to do was book an evening meal in each place and walk, and enjoy our holiday...

The backup information provided by Mickledore is also first class so booking meals ahead was easy and stress-free. We will definitely be booking with Mickledore again.

Rating for tour operator:

MIckeldore staff were friendly and efficient. We had some dietary requirements and all our accommodation hosts were aware of these and provided accordingly. They booked accommodation where needed, and if this wasn't available they arranged transport.

Wonderful Adventure Walking St Cuthbert's Way

This is the second holiday we have booked through Mickledore. The planning and preparation was spot on. The walk went smoothly. We met some amazing people en-route. The walking was great. The accommodation was overall really good. Luggage pick-up went smoothly. Overall a very stress free experience. The climax was walking the Pilgrim's Route from the mainland to Lindisfarne in bare feet!

All communications are professional and timely. If you have to phone you are greeted by people living in this country. Very happy with the service we have received.

ANOTHER AMAZING WALKING HOLIDAY

We walked St Cuthberts Way from Melrose in the Scottish Borders to Holy Island. A holiday that was both energetic and relaxing plus full of amazing scenery and interesting ancient buildings.

Wonderful walking holiday, well planned and organised. Couldn't ask for more

We had a wonderful walking holiday. Everything was very well planned and organised. The distances to cover each day were thought out - with demanding days followed by less demanding days. They had anticipated every need, including a couple of taxi runs when we stayed off the route. All info and backup materials excellent. Couldn't ask for more

No worries

St Cuthbert s way with luggage transport was perfect! Great stays in Kirk Yetholm, Wooler and Lindisfarne itself. All organised for me complete with guidebook and maps.

Excellent trip to the Scottish Borders and Northumberland

It was a 7 day walking holiday from Melrose in Scotland to Holy Island in Northumberland. Beautiful landscopes and panorama’s. Very good accomodations and nice restaurants on the way. We were very pleased with our room with a view in our hotel on Holy Island.

A hassle-free holiday experience leaving me free to relax

I took a week-long walking holiday along the St Cuthbert's Way, through the Scottish Border starting at Melrose and finishing at Holy Island off the Northumberland coast. The sense of peace and seclusion was welcome after a year of working 6-day weeks in hectic environments - with the bonus of decent B&B's or hotels at the end of each day's walk.

The holiday was arranged by Mickledore. The booking process is incredibly straightforward, the Mickledore website is clear and transparent and communications excellent. Everything you need is arranged and provided and you are confident that if you need any assistance they will do their best for you.

Had a great time walking St Cuthbert’s Way

We booked the holiday last year. All the accommodation and luggage transfer was booked well in advance. The walking instructions arrived on time and were very clear. The walk was wonderful with the accommodation and food on the whole excellent.
