Longleat Estate cycling route

Highlight • Viewpoint

Great cycling route where you may get a glimpse at some exotic animals. ;)

Tip by

7.43 km

Perhaps one of the most famous stately homes in the UK, Longleat is an impressive Elizabethan prodigy house. Longleat is set amongst 1,000 acres of parkland, home to the first safari park outside Africa.

Construction on the house began in 1568 on the site of a priory which had burnt down. Originally designed for Sir John Thynn, the estate remains in the same family today. The flamboyant artist Alexander Thynn and his son Ceawilin Thynn currently live in the house.

You can visit Longleat from 10am - 5pm daily. It's well worth exploring the safari and other attractions as well. Tickets for adults cost £17.00 online. You can buy them here: longleat.co.uk

Lovely ride through grounds of Longleat. They don’t make it too clear that you’re allowed through, but is part of the national cycle route. Longish hard climb out of the park. Pause half way up to admire Lord Baths country pad.
