Leisure Cycle Tours

We have nine different bicycle tours to choose from, ranging from a long weekend to a two week trip, and catering for a wide range of abilities and preferences of daily riding distance.

Cyclist Sports Tour

Sport Cycle Tours

Our Sport Cycle Tours make the most of Cornwall’s hilly coastal terrain, with rewarding views and beautiful scenery. Some even include the 28% incline at Hustyn Hill – one of the toughest hill climbs in the UK.

E-bike

Electric Cycle Hire

We’ve introduced a fleet of electric cycles which can be hired for our Leisure Cycle Tours. The Giant Quick E models use batteries to give cyclists a little bit of extra pedal power.

“Cornwall is such a beautiful part of England, the fishing villages and old mining towns, rugged coastline, inns and pubs; we could not have asked for more.”

Scott & Michelle Boynton - Canada

“Cornwall is spectacular and the cycling up and down the hills into the small fishing villages is rigorous and satisfying.” 

Peter & Heather Stark - Canada

“Our cycling trip was one of the very best holidays my sister and I have had. We just loved the places where we stayed, it was fabulous to see the country and to experience marvellous views and super food.“

Vanessa & Patsey Rivers - Australia

“The cliffs, beaches and towns make the hilly cycling days worthwhile. The personal customer support made our tour even more enjoyable because we didn’t have to worry about anything. My mum and I had an unforgettable cycling week in Cornwall.”

Heidrun and Kim Meissner - Germany

“We loved our accommodation and the bikes were very well maintained and very comfortable. We would highly recommend the experience to any foreign traveler as it gives you a real taste of Cornwall and England.”

Judith & Baden Sommerville - New Zealand

“The bikes were in excellent condition, and the small inns where we stayed were very welcoming and comfortable. An awesome vacation!”

Chester Arnold - USA

“Oh the scenery! Every hill and every drop of rain was worth it. Cornwall is so beautiful and cycling is a perfect way to see and feel it.”

Biking Cornwall Just completed the 7 day Poldark Cycle Tour with Cornish Cycle Tours. Absolutely loved this adventure and all the assistance Lanyon provided us in arranging and executing this trip. Weather was not the best but seeing this beautiful Cornwall coast was magic and provided us with great memories and stories. Suggestions for other bikers. Hills are significant and numerous. E bikes for leisure - older bikers is key. Be ready for rapid weather changes and gear up accordingly. B&B accommodations are really great. Familiarize yourself with the Ride GPS app. Invite another couple to add to the adventure.

Sehr gut zusammengestellte Tour durch Nord- und Südcornwall Es war eine tolle Route und Lanyon hat uns gut begleitet. Er hat die Tour extra für uns zusammengestellt. An einem Regentag hat er uns abgeholt und nach St. Ives gebracht. So konnten wir diesen Ort in Ruhe besichtigen und später per Bus und Zug zum nächsten Ort weiterfahren. Die Fahrräder hat er natürlich wie gewohnt bereits zum nächsten Hotel gebracht. Die Fahrräder waren für dieses Gelände top! Das einzige Negative war, dass wir in St. Agnes nicht die gewünschten Zimmer erhielten. Wir hatten 2 Doppelzimmer zur Einzelnutzung gebucht, bekamen aber nur ein Einzelzimmer und ein Doppelzimmer mit zwei schmalen Einzelbetten.

Eine traumhaft schöne Cornwall Woche Wir hatten eine wunderschöne Woche auf der Poldark Tour in jeglicher Hinsicht: ausgezeichnete Route mit täglich wechselnder, vielfältiger und wunderschöner Landschaft, tolle Orte mit sehr gemütlichen, sauberen und landestypischen Unterkünften inkl. leckerem Frühstück, erstklassiger Service von Lanyon Rowe, als z.B. meine Kette am E Bike gerissen ist, war er sofort da und hat sie repariert. Lanyon hat auch sehr gute Tipps für Sehenswürdigkeiten in die Reiseroute eingearbeitet. Insgesamt absolut empfehlenswert!

Sumptuous landscapes The tour lived up to all its promises. Sumptuous landscapes, breathtaking views and picturesque stops. The stages were easy to complete in a day, despite the hills and unpaved sections (you need a suitable bike, which was the case for us). The welcome in the accommodation was always excellent, friendly and attentive. The quality lived up to our expectations. Unfortunately we didn't manage to use the GPS application provided, but with the step-by-step guide we were able to recreate the route easily on Google maps. This trip has left us with some wonderful ans unforgettable memories. Estelle and David, Switzerland

6-days luxury Cornish cycling tour Very well organized cycling trip including baggage transport and fantastic accommodation with well chosen hotels and rooms. The detailed cycling instructions, maps and app were very helpful and the documentation was very accurate. The bicycles were in very good technical conditions. The transport of our suitcases was fabulous, our bags arrived in the next hotel always in time. The scenery of the cliffs, beaches and coves was fantastic and we were glad to have hired e-bikes to cycle through the hilly areas of Cornwall. We had an outstanding experience and enjoyed every day of our tour.

Great tour in beautiful scenery! We booked the 4 days Penwith tour and had the best of times! Everything was well prepared by Cornish Cycle Tours and the contact was lovely. The distances per day were not very long but considering the steep hills in this area, it can still be a challenge. I highly recommend to book e-bikes for this tour! Many thanks again to Lanyon & Co for the fantastic service. We enjoyed the tour very much it it was a great opener to our Cornwall Holidays.

A wonderful adventure! We just returned from a fabulous trip with Cornish Cycles starting in Falmouth and then on to Sennen Cove, St Ives, Porthleven, and back to Falmouth. I wasn’t too sure what to expect, but Lanyon did an amazing job with providing quality bikes, clear routes, and great inns. Lanyon is very organized, kind, and runs a top-notch business! I highly recommend using Cornish Cycles for your self-guided tour. The towns and countryside are gorgeous, the people are kind, and the hills were bigger than expected. Get ready! You might also want to pack rain gear. This tour was really the highlight of our 2 week visit to England! Thank you for providing such wonderful service Cornish Cycles!
