"We will be back for more!"

Simon, Oxfordshire
(Review obtained from Tour Operator)

This was our first self-guided mountain bike holiday and we will be back for more. The Sandstone Way is a mix of quiet roads and tracks with the odd bit of singletrack. It’s a great way to get out into the wilds of Northumberland from the North Sea coast to the Cheviot Hills. [The operator] organised everything very well, meaning we could concentrate on the riding. When things went wrong and a rear mech hanger snapped, they organised a mechanic to get us back underway. Would recommend this ride to anyone who likes to ride out in the wild!

"Having never visited this side of the country we loved it..."

Amazing route, scenery and weather! Loved all the different terrains and the climbs were awesome. Few bull encounters and a herd of cows tried to beat us through a gate which was exciting! Having never visited this side of the country we loved it. Couldn’t believe the amazing beaches, friendly people and the fantastic cycling.
