Our cycle tours

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.

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.

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.

We had an amazing 6 day holiday in Cornwall thanks to Lanyon and Cornish Cycle Tours. The routes were amazing and very easy to follow (we uploaded them to a Garmin). The scenery was beautiful and well worth the challenging climbs around the coast line! All of our accommodation was also good, and we can't fault communication with Lanyon, who was very accommodating when we had to reschedule the beginning of our trip due to COVID-19 restrictions. Would heartily recommend Cornish Cycle Tours to anyone considering booking a cycling holiday in Cornwall!

Great, very well organised by Lanyon . Very lucky with the weather. Be prepared for lots of big hills Cornwall is not very flat but the scenery makes up for it.

Had a fantastic cycle tour. They are very friendly and helpful. We liked the route, the places we stayed were all nice small B&Bs and the guidance provided (maps, suggested stops etc) were comprehensive.

Throughout the whole booking and pre tour process this company were in constant touch keeping us informed every step of the way. Every change, alteration and request was immediately dealt with. Once on tour everything went to plan from collection of bikes, provision of information. They were in touch all the time getting out and replacing a broken bike within half an hour and even picking up left phone chargers in hotels. Accommodation was all as described and trip was fantastic .

Fantastic electric bikes made the rolling hills pure joy as we zipped from one amazing location to another. The routes were easy to follow with maps, written guides and waterproof highlights and / or phones apps. The spa hotels were all unique and lthe spas largely empty as access is carefully monitored. Good stop recommendations were given and leaflets provided but due to controlled access check in advance if booking is recommended for most indoor activities. That said now is a great time to visit as many places were nearly empty and we were two of only four people in the rainforest dome in the Eden project. The weather was sunny and warm most of the time. We just wished we had added an extra day in the middle of the trip so we could have enjoyed some of the great hotels for longer and some of the coastal paths on foot. The howling eerie winds whisper through the empty tin mines as we rolled down the empty track or laying out on the balcony as the sun sets looking out onto a full sky of stars with a cocktail. Pasties in Padstow, cornish hog fior breakfast, fish and chips at the Ships Inn, crab sandwidge at Zennor and foraged food at the Source in St ives. But for those vegans, in Cornwall there was the widest selection of vegan ice cream ever seen... Mango and coconut, mint choc chip and rhubarb being just a few as well as vegan fudge. A very special holiday and only available in Cornwall.

Lanyon facilitated a fantastic holiday tour of the south coast of Cornwall. He organised some great places to stay, ported out bag from place to place allowing us to ride without luggage and provided detailed information to allow us to ride the route on back lanes and tracks. We took advantage of the suggested detours and stayed awhile in some of the villages / towns en route and still had time to explore the overnight stay location when we arrived. Many of the views are stunning! Cliff top vistas, smugglers coves and picture postcard fishing villages. I took advantage of some fantastic beaches to take a swim and we found some great restaurants along the way too. The Cornish ales and ciders are worth trying as well! What's not to like! Note - if travelling during Covid restrictions work out what you want to visit and book ahead

My husband and I and our two friends had a great cycling holiday in Cornwall going from Wadebridge to St Ives. It was well organised and I must say with the hills in Cornwall I was glad I opted for an electric bike! Although the weeks holiday worked out quite expensive it was well organised and Lanyon was always there to fix any problem should it arise. I would highly recommend Cornish Cycle Tours.

We have just returned from Cornwall after completing the wadebridge-st Ives tour. It was the perfect holiday during a pandemic as on a bike so easy to be socially distant and we could escape the crowds easily. We saw so much of beautiful Cornwall the route was full of amazing scenery. All the places we stayed were great and Lanyon was so helpful in answering our many questions and accomodating any changes we wished to make. We used electric bikes which were great as Cornwall is very hilly. All in all a fantastic holiday highly recommended.
