Where to cycle

Lanhydrock

Aside from its Victorian country house, Lanhydrock is renowned for its exhilarating cycle trails. There are flat routes for families or hillier routes for novice riders. You can even hire a bike here too.

The Camel Trail

The Camel Trail starts on the north coast of Cornwall in Padstow and finishes at Wenford Bridge. It follows an old railway line and passes through wooded countryside and along the Camel Estuary. It's a lengthy 18 miles long, but there are plenty of places to stop and have a rest including Wadebridge and Bodmin.
