We have just launched two brand new holidays for you and this time we are in Ireland. Located in the south west corner of the Emerald Isle, the Dingle Way and the Kerry Way are two of the most popular walking holidays in Ireland. Which one will you choose?

Watch Where You're Putting Your Feet
My daughter Ebony went out to do some filming yesterday. In the words of Alfred Wainwright, “Watch where you’re putting your feet."
Our latest cover image is from Sennen which is visited on the latest addition to our walking holidays, South West Coast Path: South and West Cornwall. Let's take a look at a few more images from this this stunning route.
These are the thoughts of Christine Adamson following her Dales Way walking holiday.
“We liked not having to book the accommodation and transfers ourselves and felt safe leaving the arrangements to Mickledore as they had come with very good recommendations from other walkers. Mickledore took into account the distance we had requested to walk each day and the grade of accommodation we had chosen. Their organisation was perfect and once we had paid the balance of our holiday and received their final planning there was nothing to worry about except our fitness to walk the distance.”
Katleen Delsaert has very kindly sent us these gorgeous photographs from her recent West Highland Way walking holiday. We love them. Enjoy!
I enjoyed a walk up Blencathra on Sunday evening. It was absolutely glorious!
We received this fabulous feedback from Valerie Shannon over the weekend.
"Wonderful springtime adventure in the Cotswolds: spectacular views, bluebells galore, gamboling lambs. Loved every minute of it."
Some images from my walk out to Burnmoor Tarn on the Wasdale to Eskdale stretch of our Inn Way to the Lake District walking holiday. Enjoy!
Hadrian’s Wall protected the most northern extreme of the Roman Empire. This year marks 30 years of Hadrian’s Wall being a UNESCO World Heritage Site and since 2002 we’ve been walking the Hadrian’s Wall Path. Our colleague Tara enjoyed a walking holiday along the wall in September 2015 and captured these images along the way.
“Thank you very much for a super 5 day walking holiday along Hadrian’s Wall. We were impressed that your team was able to find good quality accommodation (despite us booking late in the season) and deal with our enquiry so swiftly. All in all, a great first experience with Mickledore and we’d travel with you again.”

Some images from a beautiful morning walk round Buttermere last spring. You too can enjoy the beauty of Buttermere as you walk the shores on our Inn Way to the Lake District holiday or by taking an evening stroll whilst spending the night in Buttermere on our Vale of Lorton holiday.
Paul Schronen from Washington in the United States walked the Cumbria Way with us in September last year;
"I had an absolutely amazing experience and look forward to future hikes through Mickledore. Your company did an amazing job of organizing and coordinating the trip. Overall you’ve done an amazing job vetting the B&B’s. All the hosts and hostesses were incredibly friendly, helpful and professional. Thank you so much for the service you provide. I spoke with another local couple who were doing your Hadrian’s Wall hike, and had done organized hikes using other companies, who said that Mickledore was by far the best service out there."

Despite the wind and rain, I had a thoroughly enjoyable walk round Buttermere at the weekend. Our Inn Way to the Lake District walking holiday travels along the lakeshore before heading over to Ennerdale, Wasdale, Eskdale and beyond on a 90 mile route that will see you pass over 40 traditional Lakeland inns.
How does the thought of an Island holiday grab you? Yes, we know the UK is an Island, but I’m thinking smaller, much smaller.
The Arran Coastal Path is a 64 mile journey around one of Scotland’s most beautiful Islands, offering you; remote beaches, clifftop paths, coastal villages and craggy mountains along with red deer, red squirrels, golden eagles and basking sharks. Sounds like a perfect Walking Holiday doesn’t it.
Our Lynne enjoyed walking the route for us last summer. Arran is often described as ‘Scotland in Miniature’. Enjoy the images.
