Cyclists welcome
You are most welcome to bring your own bikes, we have a shed to store them in. If you do not want to bring your own bikes we have some that you may borrow( adult bikes only). There are also cycling helmets and tools that you may borrow. We also have a drying cupboard if you get wet! In the cottage there are books and pamphlets about local cycle routes.
