Loire Valley Cycling – Tours & Holidays
We offer three styles of single centre cycling holidays. Based at our boutique accommodation, Le Gué de Ray, we help you discover this UNESCO World Heritage site packed with famous chateaux, stunning countryside, beautiful vineyards and quiet roads!
We felt as though we were staying with good friends rather than being paying customers. Gue de Ray proved to be a home away from home – the facilities were first class – in short, we thought we’d died and gone to heaven!
