National Cycle Route 27 (the Devon Coast to Coast) runs past the top of the track that leads to our cottages. The full route stretches from Plymouth to Ilfracombe.
Route 27 includes the following off road sections;
The Granite Way (11 miles/18km) that goes from Okehampton, across the Meldon Viaduct, all the way to Lydford Gorge. Now entirely traffic free cycling, and I confess this is my absolute favourite with a cream tea at Lydford Gorge!
The Tarka Trail (32 miles/54 km). This trail is entirely traffic free and can be done in sections.
The Plym Valley Trail (10 miles/15km), a gentle, meandering trail.
The Camel Trail which meanders through the Cornish countryside following a disused railway line from Blisland to Padstow.
Other routes that are easily accessible are;
West Country Way, The South Coast Route and a large number of local cycling options.
If you like something more challenging there are some terrific cross Dartmoor routes - let us know if you would like more information when you book.
