Cycle Path in Cornwall

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.”

We had a great vacation with Cornish Cycle Tours. We did a customized tour for 8 days and nights. We were glad that we selected electric bikes as it made it very easy to add on any additional side trips that we wanted and allowed us to do longer mileages per day. Lanyon was very organized and detailed with his correspondence. He was very flexible in designing a tour for us. And, he picked us up from the train station and personally got us going with the bikes, then dropped us back off at the end of our tour. I can highly recommend this company and service.

4.8 really. We had a fabulous 19 days with this company in April 2023. Lanyon was only a phone call away. My husband and I from New Zealand did the Cornwall and Scilly 14 day tour with extra days thrown in, where we wanted to explore more. The accommodation was great and the hosts at all the nights were welcoming and very friendly. This was trip I spent along time planning and Cornwall and Scilly exceeded our expectations. We used e-bikes, because we wanted to enjoy the cycling, without working too hard. These were really appreciated on the steep ups and downs of the east coast, and on the days where the weather was inclement. There was a little issue with the maps and instructions on occasions( as sign posts or buildings had changed), we never got really lost for long (why I gave it the 4.8). I recommend this tour, especially if you want to take time to explore this beautiful part of the world. P.S. the food was amazing everywhere.

Poldark Tour Unterkünfte teilweise schmuddelig ( wadebridge)und viel zu kleine Zimmer m. mini Fenster ( Porthleven) und dann auch noch dunkel gestrichen. Kofferservice bis jetzt prima.!!!!!!! Zimmer Falmouth gut. Charlestown u. St.Ives gut.(Pedn Olva) Sind gespannt was uns noch erwartet. Route deutlich anstrengender als gedacht.

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.

What an amazing trip! Lanyon could not have been any more helpful-our ebikes were fantastic and much appreciated on those tough Cornish hills! Accomodation was spot on also. Many thanks for lots of great memories!

Four of us from Australia did the five-day Cornwall tour. The service provided by Lanyon Rowe was excellent. Lanyon was at all times obliging, and the equipment provided to us (including bikes) was excellent. We had some minor misadventures including a broken seat (caused by a frisky wayward little dog on a trail in the woods somewhere) that stalled us for a couple of hours, but a replacement was got to us as soon as possible. The tour route including roads, trails, towns, and accommodation provided us with a great introduction to south Cornwall. We have done various rides in parts of the world, and this was up there with the best in the 'developed' countries. Well done Lanyon.

Lanyon customised a tour for me to suit adding an extra night of accommodation. Cornwall put on a show with the weather, sunshine and 16 degrees which made riding a delight. The bike was in excellent condition and daily luggage pick up was seamless. Thank you Lanyon for a great couple of days through quiet scenic Cornwall streets and villages. October a perfect time to ride :)

We did the 14 days Cornwall & Isles of Scilly Tour. A wonderful and very active vacation. Our tour was adapted a bit without losing anything of its appeal. And this was the ultimate proof of Cornish Cycle Tours' vast experience and service orientation. Ten out of ten! Would do it again with you, Lanyon. Thank's a lot.

After 2 cancellations due to Covid we finally made it to the UK and the long awaited 8 day Poldark Tour. Cycling along the narrow country lanes through the picturesque fishing villages, past golden sandy beaches with me on the written directions and husband in charge of the GPS staying on the "blue line" it was all fun and adventure. Our favourite day was cycling between Sennen Cove and St Ives with the dry stone walls dividing the green fields and the ruins of the stacks and engine rooms of the old tin mines silhouetted against the blue sea - pure Cornwall. Full marks for communication and organisation of this tour. Thanks for the memories, Lanyon
