Great little stop off point. Great food and lovely beer garden.

Unfortunately you can't see much of the castle from the road. The best views are from further away, as you enter the village, where the top of the keep rises above the trees.

The northern end near Sturmer is narrow and twisting but the surface is fairly decent, especially as you climb away from the junction with the main road, but the road towards Steeple Bumpstead is in poor condition and covered in piles of loose sand and stones. One that’s better for the tourers than the roadies.

The 16th-century Kentwell Hall is a stately home in Long Melford and one of the finest moated Tudor Houses in the country. Surrounded by beautiful parkland and gardens, it's a wonderful sight to behold. The hall has been used many times for film and television and also hosts weddings, historical re-enactments and other events. It’s open to the public all year round, though you’ll need to buy a ticket to enter.

The cathedral-esque Holy Trinity Church in Long Melford is a sight to behold. Grade I-listed, it was funded by the region's prosperous wool trade and built between 1467 and 1497 in the late Perpendicular Gothic style. Thought by many to be one of the finest religious buildings in the country, a visit is a must when hiking in the area.

Cavendish is one of those achingly picturesque English villages, with a traditional green and quaint thatched cottages. There is a trio of pubs in the village centre where you can find a meal and a bed for the night. The Stour Valley Path passes through the village, as it follows the River Stour from source to sea.

Start from castle car park.

Good for road cycling but do watch out for couple of patches of road withe potholes.
