We are seeing more and more that guests are booking more short break cycling holiday of say 4-5 nights. As work-free time pressure builds taking the odd 4-5 night break a few times a year is building in popularity compared to one long holiday. The advantages of this are that you can experience two different locations in a country or even two totally different countries. Imagine 4 nights and 3 days leisure cycling; 3 days to get some exercise, visit some historic medieval villages, sample some foreign cuisine and local wines or beers. Relax and rewind as you cycle through the beautiful unspoilt countryside – heaven on two wheels!
