De beste landeveissyklingrutene rundt Stainton

Only open since October 2024 this family run Farm shop is relatively new it is however perfectly situated on the quiet lanes used by many many cyclists between Bawtry and Misterton. All local produce and home made. Great seating area outside on the drive that's a natural sun trap. This area has desperately needed a good place where we cyclists can stop off and get some wholesome refreshments. The family that run it are very welcoming and will even prepare food for groups if you call in advance and pre-order. Give it a go I'm sure you'll be happy.

Pretty old industrial bridge!

This is a Very quiet lane, stop on the bridge and take in the views, very interesting to see the sheer scale & size of the quarry.

Friendly and great cakes and coffee

Called in yesterday, great coffee, lovely setting. Advertised Christmas Market sounds tempting too.

Always a great stop off point! Great selection of meals, plenty of room for the bikes, nice to sit outside when it's warm or inside with a roaring log fire when it's chilly.

Gainsborough Old Hall in Gainsborough, Lincolnshire is over five hundred years old and one of the best preserved medieval manor houses in England. The hall was built by Sir Thomas Burgh in 1460. The Burghs were rich, flamboyant and powerful. Gainsborough Old Hall was not only their home, but also a demonstration of their wealth and importance. Burgh was a benefactor to Newark Church and also the founder of the Chantry and Alms House at Gainsborough. In 1470, the manor was attacked by Sir Robert Welles over a clash about lands, status, and honour, but it was not severely damaged. In 1484 Thomas entertained King Richard III in his hall. Henry VIII visited Gainsborough twice: once in 1509, and again in 1541 with his fifth wife, Queen Catherine Howard. The Queen was accused of indiscretions both at Gainsborough and Lincoln, and she was later executed.

Fantastic coffee and cake, it's an old barn that's been converted really well,the food looked great if you have the time. lots of space inside and out for sitting down and plenty of room for cyclists and it's tucked away from the main road.
