Britain’s best cycling holidays
Head out on your very own Tour de Britain with five of our best cycling holidays
Published:
Cornwall
Take a self-guided tour to showcase the best that Cornwall has to offer. Weave your way into traditional fishing villages, navigate over moorland, balance along cliff-tops and take in some of the county’s best-known landmarks. Accommodation, luggage transfer and detailed route maps for each day are all taken care of prior to the start of your journey – all you have to do is pedal.
Southern England
See England at its very best on a cycling tour around and through some of the country’s most famous landmarks and towns, including Stonehenge, the spa city of Bath, Blenheim Palace, the chocolate-box villages of the Cotswolds, Shakespeare’s birthplace Stratford-upon-Avon, and Oxford.
Suffolk
Keep one eye on the road and one on the view, because you won’t want to miss a second of scenery on a tour through Suffolk. One minute you could be cycling along coastline, the next whizzing by heaths, via nature reserves, forests and rivers. Each one a myriad of colours, sights and sounds. All rides are escorted by a cycle tour leader.

Wales/England border
This cycling holiday features a side order of vegetarianism! Combining great exercise and a rewarding post-pedal feast of vegetarian food – using home-grown organic fruit and veg and local produce where possible – the tours travel along the Pembrokeshire coastline, through Snowdonia and the historic border between Wales and England. Meat eaters are also welcome.
East Lothian
Pedal at your leisure across the picturesque beaches and past historic castles and peaceful villages on a two-wheel trip through the stunning Scottish county of East Lothian. There’s something to suit pedallers of all ages and abilities: history, wildlife and no hills.
