If Bradley Wiggins, Sir Chris Hoy and Victoria Pendleton have inspired you to get back in the saddle or you are simply yearning to rekindle the exhilaration of pedal power combined with a few days away then the brand new ‘Get On Your Bike Break’, at Armathwaite Hall Country House and Spa could be just what you are looking for.

What better way to enjoy the simple pleasure of cycling than surrounded by the breath taking scenery of the stunning Lake District? What is more following your days exertions, fuelled by a full Cumbrian breakfast, you can enjoy a luxurious leg and foot massage to relieve aching muscles, relax in the spa and indulge in a delicious, five course dinner in the Lake View restaurant – you don’t even need to bring a bike it will be provided for you.
