Day One Arrive at the Stoke-by-Nayland Club and enjoy the superb facilities including golf, a magnificent pool and fitness centre, sauna and steam room, and a chance for soothing massage or beauty treatment.

Day TwoTake delivery of your bikes and cycle out through Stoke by Nayland to the historic town of Hadleigh with its fine old high street and pretty riverside walks. Then on to Kersey where you can feed the resident ducks in this most beautiful village of merchants’ houses and weavers’ cottages. Continue to Chelsworth, described as one of the most entrancing villages in England, lined with beech and chestnut trees in the valley of the River Brett. Finally to Bildeston for your overnight stop amongst the timber framed cottages and overhanging upper storeys in this once important ’Wool Town.’
