Cycle Breaks Avis 

We used Cycle Breaks to organise a cycle holiday on the 4 day / 3 night "Castles, Rivers & Woodbridge" route through Suffolk.

Throughout the booking process the team at Cycle Breaks were fantastic helping to put together a fantastic itinerary for my 81 year old dad and I. I hired an eBike from Cycle Breaks which was in great condition, easy to use and charge the battery in my room each afternoon before dinner!

We were supplied with a route to be followed on a smartphone app and it was brilliant. Each day there were 3 routes to choose from - suggested, short and long. Not only were we taken on a delightful route through the countryside, but the route signposted good places to stop - including opening hours and the sort of refreshment available! Lots of places for tea and cake - perfect. It also pointed out places of interest which we used for stops on the way to learn more about the region.

The accommodation was very comfortable and with tables for dinner booked for us by Cycle Breaks we really didn't need to think too hard each day - just enjoy the holiday.

It is worth saying that the weather was against us on the trip - yet we had a super time. I look forward to booking future breaks with Cycle Breaks and may try European routes next.

We recently returned from an 8-day Provence and Camargue cycle tour, our third trip using Cycle Breaks, having previously undertaken two similar trips to Puglia and the Dolomites in Italy.

Once again the tour was well organised, staying at some excellent hotels and using good hire bikes, supplied by their local partner Ruckenwind - my Ebike was excellent + I was impressed by the smartphone navigation system supplied before departure, which faultlessly guided us clearly throughout the tour.

My wife and I have been cycle camping for many years but the luxury of having your bags carried ahead each day + a good bed each night is very appealing and I'm sure we'll be returning to Cycle Breaks again soon.

I went on a 5 day Girona & Catalan Coast cycling trip solo with Cycle Breaks. From the outset, communication was great, they were super helpful at booking, and the pre-trip communication and information provided was excellent and very well organised. The trip itself was brilliant, v beautiful scenery and very comfortable hotels, efficient luggage transfers and good choice of towns (the most beautiful is Calella de Parafrugell) which is truely outstanding. I would highly recommend using Cycle Breaks who do a stellar job, far superior to the better known "bigger" cycle holiday companies in the market at a better price to boot!

Great communication. Really appreciated the ability to add additional days in different cities. Strong local partner in Portugal that did a great job covering off the maps, GPS, bikes, etc. Great accommodations! A really great experience overall!

Our Alsace cycling holiday went pretty well to plan, and the weather was perfect. All the hotels were good to excellent, with the pick being the one in Kaysersberg.
The only slight blip was that the bikes which we were due to pick up bikes from the Hotel Monopole Métropole on Tuesday 26 Sept were not there. After 20 minutes or so the hotel receptionist informed us that the bikes were stored in a hotel by the station, about 600 metres away. All was fine, after this initial misunderstanding.

The Classic Provence was a delightful trip around the east of Provence, taking in the Rhone valley and its many vineyards. It was nice to stay two nights in some of the hotels. The local German company supporting us were good as were the hotel in Orange with such friendly staff.

I had a hugely enjoyable solo cycling holiday in Suffolk, organised by Cycle Breaks, biking between picturesque towns across a journey of 111 miles and staying in some excellent hotels. All of the hotels offered something unique, but two were particularly outstanding - shout out to The Crown at Stoke by Nayland and The Angel at Bury St. Edmunds. Cycle Breaks was a very supportive company - they did all the bookings and provided me with printed road maps to take with me on every ride, as well as recommended routes to upload onto sat-nav. I managed to operate very well on combining both maps with sat-nav as well as employing the old-fashioned approach of reading road signs! The journeys took me through some of the loveliest villages I’ve ever seen, and I also made a point of stopping at and exploring many of the beautiful country churches Suffolk has to offer. Although I was cycling alone, I really valued the experience and probably approached it differently because of that. I should add that I was lucky to be blessed with very warm weather, and most days was careful to slap on the sunblock! Thanks, Cycle Breaks, for arranging my tour and for all your help and advice.

We had a happy cycling week in Suffolk. Comfortable hotels, good food, solid bikes, friendly and helpful people, lovely landscape, interesting things to visit and marvellous weather. An absolutely recommendable cycling tour.

Fantastic, all the hotels were excellent and provided great service and the navigation was first class! No faults!

Cycle Breaks are lovely, helpful people and we very much enjoyed our five-night cycling tour of the Suffolk coast and countryside (including Framlingham, Southwold and Aldeburgh). They have a great selection of routes at different lengths and levels of difficulty, they booked very nice hotels for us, and their whole process was efficient. Andy and Mike are very responsive, and they were friendly and welcoming when we collected and dropped off the bikes (which were also great, and comfortable).

A cycling holiday won't always be the 'easiest' kind of holiday, and the weather is going to have a bearing on how hard you have to work. But you see so much beautiful scenery you would never see otherwise, on the little country lanes, and there's a sense of achievement when you get to your next stopover. We also returned a bit fitter than when we left.

If I did this type of holiday again, I'd ask for two nights in at least a couple of the towns, to give some recovery time between cycling days. The extra day would also mean you could explore the destination at more of a relaxed pace. Cycle Breaks will happily do this for their customers.

In short, I'm glad to have been on this trip and I'd recommend Cycle Breaks. :)

We were provided with good bikes, good accommodation, well planned routes. Luggage was transferred efficiently. We were supported when we had a puncture.

Great organisation and excellent equipment makes Cycle Breaks a perfect choice. In particular the curated routes are always well developed and enjoyable making the whole experience seamless. Highly recommended.

Attention paid to the smallest detail. Wonderful accommodation arranged. Lovely bikes. Exceptional personal service. Can’t find any faults at all.

The standard of service was extremely high. Excellent route planning with accurate mapping to support your riding. Excellent bikes. We really enjoyed the choice of hotels, all reflecting the atmosphere of Suffolk.

Great. All great.

We used Cycle Breaks for the second time over the Easter weekend. They were really quick at responding to queries and request when deciding which tour to book and all the pre trip itinerary and info was great. The bikes were of excellent quality and the GPS system really helped navigate us around. The B&Bs were lovely and our bags were already in our room each time we turned up. If you are thinking of booking a trip with Cycle Breaks, then do it. I would highly recommend them and will definitely be organising another trip soon.

Clear and speedy communication. All emails were dealt with in a very helpful manner. Even when the wrong email was used to register the sat-nav package, this was rectified by the local partner within a few minutes. The selection of hotels (3 locations) were all excellent.

Wir erlebten eine gut organisierte Radtour durch Suffolk. Die Streckenführung war super, meist über kleine Nebenstraßen, leider sind Radwege in England ja eigentlich nicht existent. Gute Hotels, leider fehlten manchmal sichere Abstellmöglichkeiten.

Very obliging staff who knew the area extremely well.
