ランバーハーストでののおすすめグラベルライド

Lovely route to ride

If only all old railways could be a good as this one. Whitstable to Folkestone on the Canterbury South is on my hitlist!!

Going downhill, there's a blind turn and three high steps and very little space to brake. Be careful!

Very close to the southern part of Bewl Water, it's a great spot if you want to stop for a meal or simply to refresh yourself. It has a spacious garden with tables and benches.

This station has its own signal box and old-fashioned semaphore signals, which is quite interesting. The Spa Valley Railway passes through here.

Lovely off road route, great for kids. Gravel, but smooth enough and pretty level so I could cope on 23mm tyres. Also dry so ok for commute, though lots of runners and dog walkers so not the speediest. Wider tyres would be nicer for comfort though.

The ancestral home of the Sidney family and birthplace of the Elizabethan poet Sir Phillip Sidney, Penshurst Place is a grand manor set in beautiful gardens. There is a cafe to the east of the estate which is open seven days a week, with lots of space for bikes. For more information check out the website https://www.penshurstplace.com/
