Our Cycling for Softies single centre cycle tours are perfect for couples or families looking to get away and spend some quality time together. Unlike our usual tours, you are based at one luxury hotel in a gorgeous location for a whole week, without moving from place to place. It’s a perfect choice for those who are looking for the freedom to run their own schedule on the ground. Cycle as much or as little as you like, and you are still provided with bikes and suggested cycle routes so you can come and go as you please.
What is also special about these tours are the activities that we can arrange for you as well as cycling. From wine tours for the grown-ups to theme parks for children and canoeing for the whole family, we can organise these fun things for you to do before you even leave the UK.
Guest Review
‘We would like to return to the Loire Valley as it is so beautiful and there are many places we still have to visit. The local food and wines were superb.’
Mrs Conway
Marton, Cycle Expert
"Our single centre cycling holidays are the perfect choice for those looking to explore an area at their own pace and enjoy all it has to offer. The suggested day round trips stop at some of our favourite sights and points of interest, however, if you would prefer taking the day to visit elsewhere, or simply relax, you are at leisure to do so."
