currently closed for refurbishment (end of oct 25)

Great route along the old railway line seeing station platforms from the past.

Gets busy and they end breakfast at 11.30. Missed out on bacon roll/cob

Lovely stretch of road to ride with a Westerly.

This fine old blacksmiths forge dates back to 1845 and has a horseshoe surrounding the entrance. It's a Grade II listed building.

St Peter & St Paul's Church dates from the 12th century and is grade 1 listed. It's a serving Church of England church in the Diocese of Southwell and Nottingham.

Agriculture. The last remaining open field system in the UK.

Nice little climb. Good for benchmarking or friendly battle with friends. Not too long and has a sting in the tail. 99% car free.

Cyclist friendly beer stop. Variety of food trucks here in the early evenings too.

Sweet little back road from Gunthorpe bridge to East Bridgford. Traffic free to the west, access only at the eastern end, so very quiet. Great way of avoiding the main road. Watch out for flooding after heavy rain though, as the bottom end is at water level. Tip: keep a gear ready for the last bit where it ramps up suddenly.

Beautiful spot great scenery and history Castle grounds definitely worth a visit

Amazing! I wasn't expecting such a castle in the middle of Newark when cycling through.👍 Looks like it would be well worth a visit if you have time.

My favourite stretch when cycling on the quiet lanes from Newark to Gunthorpe on the north side of the river. There is also an enjoyable riverside walk to this point from the car-park at Gunthorpe, past the locks and weir.

I use this scenic section of the lane regularly. Make it part of a loop between Gunthorpe and Newark, going SW on this lane and back up the lanes on the other side of the Trent, avoiding the A46

Combine a visit to the castle with a picnic, watching the Trent roll by. There are lots of quiet lanes approaching from the south.

Newark Castle ruins are set in lovely, formal gardens bordered by the remaining walls of the castle which was partly destroyed in 1646 at the end of the English Civil War.

Regularly use this quiet lane when returning SW from Newark towards Bingham and the Vale of Belvoir. Also next to a lovely riverside walk between Hoveringham and Gunthorpe

Great café, plenty of seating inside and when the weather is good plenty of outdoor seating as well. Would definitely recommend coming here.

Not far from CVV, memorial to a plane crash in WW2.
