Fantastic little cafe with table service out-front for cyclists. Visited on a club run recently and they couldn't have been more helpful. Empire biscuits pretty good for a sugar boost and the coffee was excellent too.

Big Bike Sculpture

Highlight • Monument

Exactly what it says on the tin - a fun statue of a big bike along NCN Route 7. Definitely worth stopping for a photo of the statue with your own bike.

Highlight • Structure

A lovely spot for a picnic or a rest. The carvings sit just off National Cycle route 7, and at a junction connecting the Castle Semple Lochside Trail with Parkhill Woods.
