Country Lanes Cotswolds Bicycle Tour

What better way to see the Cotswolds than on two wheels? Set off from the cottage and head through undulating countryside (no steep hills!), enjoying the sights and sounds of the country at close hand. Have a guide for the day, or choose one of our recommended routes down beautiful back lanes. Stop off at village pubs and tearooms when you need a break - then head back for a pre-cooked meal and a soak in the hot tub. Top-quality bikes, helmets, locks, water bottles and spare tube and tools are all provided. You just bring the legs!

A Day at the Races

A taxi or minibus will whisk you through stunning Cotswolds countryside to Cheltenham racecourse, where you can sample the very best that the Sport of Kings has to offer. Catch a few races, enjoy a girly lunch, then it’s back to the racetrack before the limo ride home. Back at the cottage, you can have a pre-cooked meal waiting for everyone.
