ナットハムステッドのおすすめランニングルート

Brilliant cafe!

Ideal for gravel bike. Wouldn't do it on a road bike.

Bring something to eat on route and just enjoy the peace

In periods when a large amount of rain is dumped in a short period of time, the stretch of Bell Lane outside the entrance to the farm is underwater. Access is just about possible via the verge on the southern side of Bell Lane.

For me, it promises much but is ultimately not great. The driveway/estate part is as smooth as can be, but the gravel/concrete stretch not so. The concrete is so busted up and rutted that it makes for heavy going.

Anstey is a gorgeous village in tranquil East Hertfordshire. Its St George's church is Grade I-listed and is notable for its Gothic Revival architecture, as well as for surviving a near miss when a Flying Fortress bomber narrowly missed crashing into it during the Second World War. If you're hungry or thirsty, there's the Blind Fiddler pub, which is named after a folk tale that originated here. It tells of a fiddler named Blind George who vanished while exploring an underground passage with his fiddle. The melodic sounds of his fiddle were replaced by blood curdling screams and then he was never heard from or seen again.

Great gravel track from Nuthampstead to Cockenach

Lovely tea room, great cakes, great coffee, cyclists welcome
