Your stay at the Woodbridge Tudor manor house and luxury country hotel, Seckford Hall , really sets the scene for the historic Suffolk treasures you will explore on this tour. A single centre break, it is ideal for those who want to try out a cycling holiday for the first time, or who fancy mixing gentle cycling with a relaxed stay in a magnificent setting. Our selection of 4 meticulously prepared tours lets you explore castles, coast, marshlands and market towns, estuaries and seaside as the whim takes you.
