Tonbridge Breeze from Ightham Mote

A picturesque route leaving Ightham Mote Car Park (sorry about the hill, but we can walk this) to Ivy Hatch and then across to Plaxtol where we can glimpse a view of the Fairlawne Estate with sheep and lambs in abundance. There are also pretty cottages on our return and different views of the estate.

There are a couple of inclines as we finally make our return along Mote Road but these are short and can be walked if needed. We can also sneak in the back way to Ightham Mote to admire their gardens as we look forward to our reward of coffee and cake!

A short route that encompasses a bit of everything especially aimed at less experienced road riders as a confidence builder. There are a couple of short hills which can be walked as necessary.

On mainly country roads although we will briefly be joining and crossing an A road although the experienced ride leaders will guide you safely across.

Stopping along the way to admire the views with coffee back at Ightham Mote
