Home We are a small firm based in South Somerset that specializes in taking the strain and the stress out of organizing cycling and walking breaks and holidays in this wonderful corner rural England. We are based near to Yeovil and are near to Rail and Coach stations in the area. We are also within easy reach of Bournemouth, Exeter and Bristol International airports. The area we cover is a part of Old Wessex in the South and South West of England. We organize your accommodation, which is mainly bed and breakfast, The routes you will travel and, for the cyclists, any equipment you may require, including the bikes. If you arrive at one of the local stations or airports we will pick you up and return you at the end of your holiday.
You can also book a day or half a day cycling on the Somerset Levels for easy cycling. To do so click here for full details. As we are a small company, that has now been in operation for over eight years, and, because of our locality we are able to offer the best accommodation in the area at reasonable prices. Also we tailor the vacation to your requirements, by doing the research locally, thus saving you a lot of time, cost and effort. We work in conjunction with South Somerset and West and North Dorset tourist offices and are the only company in this area providing these facilities. Over the last six years we have had many comments from our clients from ...."there is so much wildlife in the area, we even saw a pike in a stream and it must have been one and a half feet long".....,..."We have seen buzzards, owls, hawks and woodpeckers, fantastic” ……….”and a peregrine falcon swooped down across the cliffs........’’ Chris whose company it is, is an avid cyclist and has been cycling in this area for the last nine years, he has learnt all about the ways of life and the places of interest that are not to be found in the tourist brochures, such as the villages and landscapes that are all around this area of Wessex. Also all the quiet lanes that pass through the countryside taking you away from the hustle and bustle of modern day life. The weather in this part of England is temperate and during the summer we seem to have drier periods than the rest of the country.
