Friendly, cosy cafe in Goverton, near Bleasby. There are around 5 cycle racks with very small locks and key so you can lock your cycle up without worrying about it being stolen. The coffee and Chocolate orange cake were delicious! The tea shoppe has a beautiful enclosed garden full of flowers and wild birds. There is a toilet available to use. I would definitely recommend stopping by here for a coffee when on a ride. Visited in April 2025, opening hours are Wednesday - Sunday, 9am-4pm.

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

Sadly most of the apple trees that used to be here a few years ago have been chopped down. How many trees makes an orchard? More than there are I would say!

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

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

Quieter alternative to Spring Lane, which tends to be driven like it's a motorway. Keep your brakes well fettled for the steep bit at the bottom.

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.

An ‘open access’ orchard, which can be enjoyed at the start of the picturesque Southwell Trail. Within the Community Orchard, three Bramley Apple trees were planted to commemorate the bicentenary of the world famous apple in 2009. The trees were donated by Roger Merryweather who, along with his brother, were the last members of the family involved with running H. Merryweather & Sons Nursery, where the world-famous Bramley Apple was first cultivated. Riverside Walk is ideal for a tranquil stroll alongside the River Greet, from Upton Road to the Greet Bridge on the Normanton Road, while the Orchard is a popular picnic spot.
