Just spent the weekend at the Dales Bike Centre as a group of us took over the entire accommodation for 2 nights with Stu guiding us for 2 days either side of the valley. Great value for money, comfortable, fantastic cake and amazing plum flapjacks; with only a short walk to the pub. The rides and views were spectacular and highlighted with some big climbs and gnarly rocky trails challenging us all. Our guide was very knowledgeable about the area in terms of the trails and the history of this rugged industrial scarred landscape. Can’t wait to return to the area for Ard Rock but will also definitely look to stay at the Dales Bike Centre again.
I had an excellent experience at this restaurant, thanks to the fantastic staff and facilities in a wonderful location. I've been visiting this café for many years, especially as a stop for mountain biking, but it's also a great place to enjoy time with family and meet friends. Although the shop is small, it has everything you need, offering quality products along with great advice and service. The food is fabulous, and I've always encountered friendly people—whether they're hikers, mountain bikers, or cyclists of all ages. This place just keeps getting better!
This place is definitely worth a visit and a stay. The staff and facilities are excellent. The café serves fantastic coffee and delicious cakes. They also offer a nice breakfast, perfect for recharging before hitting the road. The bike shop and mechanic are very knowledgeable, helpful, and friendly. It’s a great place to stay, and I would absolutely come back and recommend it to friends. The rides are a bit hilly for us flatlanders—I climbed more here in three days than I have all year!
This is a fantastic spot to stop for a refill on a rather rainy Wednesday afternoon ride. The service staff are exceptionally courteous, and the small repair I needed was handled effortlessly while I enjoyed some warmth and comfort in the café. The warm welcome and friendly staff are truly top-notch, along with the delightful selection of cakes and snacks to pair with a steaming cup of tea.

Brilliant little place for an MTB trip. Just spent the weekend there and loved it, especially the descent from Fremington Edge, as recommended by Stu. All of the staff are very helpful and pointed us in the direction of the great routes that are right on the doorstep. Oh, and the cake is amazing! Would definitely recommend!
A great place to go after a long walk ..... cake and hot chocolate mmmm Or lunch with friends ? Good whatever you choose to eat or drink
Would visit even without a bike! Exquisite cake and coffee and the bacon roll had half a pig on it! A must for any passer by!
