Waddington Village

Highlight • Pub

With a babbling brook, manicured gardens and chocolate box cottages, Waddington is a lovely village in Lancashire. Its historic buildings house fascinating tales: Henry VI went into hiding in Waddington Hall for 12 months, before he was betrayed to the Yorkists in 1465. Today, you can explore the pretty village and enjoy a slice of cake at the bike-friendly cafe opposite the church.

Bashall Barn Café

Highlight • Cafe

Nice café with good food, excellent coffee. No bike rack but plenty of places to put them with good visibility. A little too swanky for your usual cycling café but welcome cyclists, they even have a 'Cyclists Special' (beans on toast with poached egg)
