Cycle Safari #AdventureinLancashire

Beautiful accommodation, amazing food and getting in the heart of Lancashire’s stunning countryside, what more could you want?

James’ Places have partnered with Ribble Valley E-Bike Hire to bring a bespoke experience to Lancashire, that connects the spectacular scenery of the Ribble Valley and the Forest of Bowland AONB with some of the finest hospitality in the area by electric bike.

Start by picking your accommodation, choose from the stunning 17th Century Inn, the Shireburn Arms in Hurst Green, or the warm and inviting Waddington Arms in the beautiful village of Waddington.

On arrival at the hotel, your bike will be fully charged and ready for you to explore the beautiful landscapes across the Ribble Valley and Forest of Bowland as well as visit the popular visitor attractions.

After working up an appetite, head to one of James’ Places pubs or cafés, where you are assured a warm welcome and delicious, locally produced food. Then on your return to the hotel, you can have a relaxing bath followed by a two-course a la carte dinner.

As part of the James Places one day cycle safari, you will have the use of two e-bikes from 9am – 4pm on either your arrival or departure date.

However, should you wish to continue your adventure, you can extend your bike hire with Ribble Valley E-Bikes and roll on to your destination.

For those seeking a bit more adventure, there is also access to Gisburn Forest Mountain Bike Trials. Explore miles of traffic-free woodland trails offering varying degrees of challenge, from beginner to expert standard.

The e-bikes are provided by Ribble Valley E-Bike Hire, who are based in the quaint village of

Dunsop Bridge, also recognised as the centre of Great Britain. As well as delivering and collecting the bikes, a qualified technician will also do a full hand-over and be available for technical support.
