Lovely aerial photograph of Stoke by Nayland - one of our local cycling tour stops. The Crown @ Stoke By Nayland is bottom centre of the picture.

We're so pleased that our local village pub has been bought back to life by hands-on new owners with a restaurant background. We can now recommend it wholeheartedly to all our customers who arrive in Langham around lunchtime and need "refuelling" before pedalling off in earnest!

We've just updated the website with 2015 prices and a few tweaks to our recommended accommodations. Roll on Spring and some warmer drier cycling weather!

The recent Guardian article on walking & cycling in North Essex is now on their website.

Nice article in today's Guardian Travel Section about the attractions of North Essex as a rural getaway destination. We provided hire bikes and got a nice mention too :-)

The cycling filming we did with the BBC last May for Escape to the Country has finally come to air. It's a three minute segment about Constable Country, starting 16 mins 25 secs into the program.

A few piccies from today's film shoot...

Just spent a fun day being filmed by the BBC for an upcoming episode of Escape to the Country. The househunters were keen cyclists so they needed a tour guide to show them some of the local cycling here in Constable Country. Show won't air till the autumn though :-(
