Leeds (UK) Holiday

Leeds is the perfect definition of the ‘La Dolce Vita’ (The Good Life) thanks to its food, culture and landscapes. The constructed heritage is one you can admire while riding through the heart of the city. Leeds has masses to offer, along with Harewood House and Temple Newsam, Kirkgate Market is undoubtedly one of the most recognizable and prized landmarks.

The city is also the perfect base for discovering the local scenery. There’s a great cycling network in Leeds, meaning that it’s easier for you to navigate your way in and around the city on a premium Pedego Electric Bike!! Otley Chevin Forest Park is an hour’s ride outside Leeds. Walk or cycle through the park with a wonderful view of the Wharfedale from the 282meter Surprise View peak; one of the best viewpoints in the Peak District.

You also have to visit Saltaire or ride down to Ilkley for a picturesque stroll through the fabulous market towns. Once you’ve worked up an appetite, call into Casa Mia in Chapel Allerton for some well-known authentic Italian dishes.
