Beeston Castle is a former Royal castle in Beeston, Cheshire, England, perched on a rocky sandstone crag 350 feet above the Cheshire Plain. It was built in the 1220s by Ranulf de Blondeville, 6th Earl of Chester, on his return from the Crusades.

Peckforton Castle is a Victorian country house built in the style of a medieval castle. It stands in woodland at the north end of Peckforton Hills one mile (2 km) northwest of the village of Peckforton, Cheshire, England. It is recorded in the National Heritage List for England as a designated Grade I listed building. The house was built in the middle of the 19th century as a family home for John Tollemache, a wealthy Cheshire landowner, estate manager, and member of parliament. It was designed by Anthony Salvin in the Gothic style. During the Second World War it was used as a hostel for physically disabled children.

Impressive cycle shop/workshop with a very good cafe doing decent coffee and cake. Always very friendly here. You can get some fantastic views from here, out over the Cheshire plain when the weather is clear

Great cafe but does get busy so if you riding in a group best to book ahead. Also note it is not open on Sundays.

Looks like it is no longer open on Sundays

A brilliant place to stop mid ride. The area is safe, there's plenty of seating and places to lock a bike up, and the coffee and food are delicious. Tarporley is a beautiful place to sit and watch everything go by for a while

Great place to stop, especially on a sunny day. Lots of parking and places to leave your bike

Gorgeous route on perfect tarmac. The view of the castle gives good perspective on how far you've gone/still have left to go.

Good coffee, home made cake, great bike maintenance shop.

This is a great cycling cafe.

Can't really miss the sight of Peckforton. Not a 'real' castle like Beeston as such, but still impressive

Beeston Castle is well worth a visit...the climb up the hill is rewarded with great views over the Cheshire Plain

Great cakes and coffee

Not open 7 days a week, and now moved premises to Utkinton.

nice view to the surrounding area. the route to the castle not suitable for a road bike, you may need to carry your bike on some parts
