You can select your days cycling from one of our well researched routes and we can tailor the week to develop your fitness. Two days a week you can opt to join a guided day out, no need to take a map or think about where you are going, just enjoy the ride.

At the end of your day's cycling you can clean down and service your bike in out tailor made bike workshop before sitting down to afternoon tea. Later after relaxation by the pool or in a hammock by the side of our private fishing lake you will enjoy a four course evening meal with wine and coffee. We have completed our own two year 'Grand Design', and after a very successful first season, we have been awarded the 2012 'Coup de Coeur' award for enterprise in tourism, by the Correze General Council, headed by Francoise Hollande.

Our new stone barn conversion and chestnut clad extension provide stylish accommodation for up to 11 people, with all rooms having en suite facilities. Our cycling holidays are ideally suited to the keen and experienced road cyclist, but we can also cater for cyclists with less experience, or for those who want to combine cycling with some of the many other activities available in the region.
