Cleobury is a pretty little town in the very south of Shropshire, and Cleobury Cafe is the best cafe in the town. Bike friendly and worth a stop off.

Slightly busier road/climb than others in the area but worth it for the panoramic views. Highest A road in Shropshire, no less.

Whitcliffe Common lies to the north of Ludlow, rising above the ruined castle and the meandering River Teme. A network of footpaths explores the common, woodland and riverside. Not for bikes, but a very pleasant place to stop for a mid-ride rest or picnic, and the views out across the common to the Clee Hills from the road are fantastic.

The Burwarton Estate between Ludlow and Bridgnorth covers 11,000 acres of Shropshire countryside near to Brown Clee Hill which, at 540m, is the highest point in the county. The gravel estate track is a great vantage point from which to admire the views.

Fun ford crossing the River Rea at the hamlet of Neen Savage.

Great little cafe with delicious cakes. Cycle parking a little further down the street.

Great views, busy road though.

Nice spot to stop and take 5

Steep you might have to push

This little village has a Norman church, dating back to around 450 BCE. It has some lovely historic buildings in it and is a pleasure to wander around in the sunshine. In the graveyard lie three graves of soldiers who died in the First World War.

This country inn is a wonderful place to eat and stay but more than that, it's architecture is well worth admiring. A 16th-century timbered building, the Talbot has been carefully restored and remains wonderfully reminiscent of centuries gone by. The passageway would've once seen horses and carriages pass through.

St Mary's is notable for its pretty position rather than any great age. In fact, it was only built in the latter half of the 19th century. It lies in Cleeton, on the north east slope of Titterstone Clee and has views to the east of patchwork farmland.

The River Rea passes through Neen Savage here and the ford is particularly picturesque. When the water is low, cars can ford the river while pedestrians can use the footbridge. Care should be taken in inclement conditions though and, as the river is prone to flash flooding, the ford should never be crossed if you're in doubt about whether you can make it.

Not the prettiest of places but Clee Hill is worth a walk.
