엘킹턴 최고의 라이딩 경로

Top tip only park your bike on the left, (looking from the road) there is a sign to remind you when you arrive. Great service, nice little upstairs room when the weather isn’t so good, or sit outside side on warm sunny days, good value for money with the coffee and cake.

The cafe can get busy, be patient and relax 😁

Decisive battle of the English Civil War

This climb is a leg-burner, perfect for a serious workout. In reverse, it’s a scenic, enjoyable downhill, offering sweeping views of the countryside - so a rewarding ride in either direction.

What inevitably catches the eye of the passing cyclist are the modern heirs of the beautiful historic windmills. Centuries ago, our ancestors were clever enough to use the power of the wind for their own purposes, by driving millstones and grinding grain into flour, for example. Often placed in the landscape in dozens, this modern and unaesthetic variant - in the past, people took great care to design the architecture of each individual mill - is used to generate electricity. These wind farms are not without controversy, as they are often built without consideration for the landscape, and above all, the slender blades can become a death trap for birds.

Mind out for traffic and potholes. Nice countryside riding

lovely cafe, great choice and all freshly prepared to order

Get there before 11, fab outside space, bikes safe out the back (needs bike racks tho as used by cyclists)
