 I am trying to compile a list of cls with direct access or very close to a cycle track. I have tried trolling through the CL web site , but some descriptions are very vague. I know one or two from personal use, but any suggestions would be welcome and may be of use to other members.

Penygraig Farm near Aberystwyth is right next to a cycle way. We haven't visited yet, it's on our to-do list.

Hello youngalan

Just to say we are adjacent to Route 41 on the Sustrans cycle network. We are also adjacent to the Severn Way which probably is more suited to mountain bikes. All routes around this area are flat. Please have a look at our site (no EHUs but lots of peace!).

There is fishing available on the river and plenty of bird watching opportunities.

You will be very welcome.

Street House Farm CL, York Road, Tadcaster. No.1911. Basic site but very good.

The Sustrans cycle path runs past the lane / site entrance, the one that runs alongside the A64 between Tadcaster and York. The path goes to the start of the Universe, the Sun, straight on through the Universe to Riccall (picnic area 11 miles) then on to Selby (17 miles). Turn left to York past the racecourse and what was once Terry’s chocolate factory to the King’s Arms pub (8 miles). We did 2 cycle rides 22.5 then 16 miles, towing the dog in his trailer, good for the leg muscles.

Lots more cycle paths to choose from.

Good for dogs as well, lots of local bridleways and footpaths.

Noticed a CL opposite the Cheddar club site where there is easy access to a cycle track named the Strawberry Line.  Haven’t used either the CL or the track but I’m sure there will be info somewhere on the web.

The Waterloo Inn at Biggin by Hartington in the White Peak has its own camp site. Lovely village very near the Tissington Trail with lots of nearby walks. In addition to the pub next door is Biggin Hall Hotel which serves meals to non residents too . Its a wonderful old manor,house, with great food. Enjoy!

Thank you of the contributions. - please keep them coming.

We will use the information whilst touring - being of a 'mature 'age cycling on main roads is not a particularly healthy occupation.

Here's one we've used near Llanelli, pub next door and excellent cycle track which I think links up with the coastal routes. We used it for some local walks at the time.
