                Devon Coast to Coast – 3 days / 3 nights

                The Devon coast to coast is our most popular route and in our opinion is one of the finest ways to explore the Devon countryside.  We have made every effort in planning this tour to ensure that participants have opportunity to enjoy the best of the great scenery, historical landmarks and fine cuisine Devon has to offer.  Our experienced cycling tour guides are local to the area, and are there not only to assist in navigation, but to help make your holiday as relaxing and rewarding as possible.

                We have carefully selected the finest guest houses.  We will transfer your luggage each day and provide you with drinks and snacks and transport you back to your vehicle at the end of the tour.  We take pride in our local knowledge, and greet everyone at the start of the tour with a small presentation of the local historical sights, natural beauty spots and good cafes and pubs along the route.

                We have chosen to run the 102 mile tour over three days, allowing cyclists to relax, take in the spectacular scenery and explore the many historical towns and villages that will be encountered on route.  Whilst this is a relatively gentle ride, it should be noted that the route undulates over the rolling hills of mid Devon.  This route is suitable for anyone with a basic level of fitness.
