Byways Breaks - Award winning cycling holidays, walking holidays and cottage breaks -

Byways Breaks have been arranging cycling holidays and walking holidays for more than 13 years. We know the best places to stay, and our cycling and walking routes are carefully planned to explore the most beautiful countryside, visit places of interest and stop at the best pubs and tea shops. We are proud to have been awarded 'Best Tourism Experience 2008' by Visit Chester and Cheshire.

All cycling holidays and walking holidays are self led, so you have the freedom to explore at your own pace. The gentle, unspoilt countryside of Shropshire, Cheshire and Welsh borders is a lovely area of the UK for cycling and walking. For cycling holidays, its not too flat to be boring, with the occasional hill and slope to give variety and views. For walking, the area offers rolling countryside with many footpaths and more hilly walking around the Shropshire and Clwydian Hills and along Offa's Dyke Path. We also offer a number of other trail walks along the Welsh/English borders and north of England.

We have a range of holidays including one centre breaks or touring holidays where you stay somewhere different each night (while we move your luggage). Cycling and walking distances are flexible, with routes for all abilities. Holidays can start on any day, and you choose from a range of accommodation from comfortable farms, to country house hotels and self catering cottages. Holidays are available all year.

Autumn/Winter Special  - One centre hotel walking breaks with dinner, bed and breakfast or farmhouse breaks with , bed and breakfast and a variety of circular walks for each day.

2010 Holidays: New this year - our popular Walkers accommodation and luggage service for trail walks like Offa's Dyke Path now covers the nearby Glyndwr's Way in mid Wales and also the Dales Way in Yorkshire. Our 2010 brochure can be read on line or we can post a copy to you - click here -
