Great food, lovely staff and plenty of space in the garden and the owner promises a free banana for cyclists! (At least those doing the rebellion way)

The memorial honours all those who served in the 7th Armoured Division (The Desert Rats), the 4th Armoured Brigade (The Black Rats), and the 7th Armoured Brigade (The Green Jerboa) throughout history. The area also features a network of interconnected trails perfect for mountain biking, do watch out for walkers though.

Lovely path that eventually leads you into Lynford Arboretum. There is a nice lake and beach here to stop by for a dip if you have the time and whilst conditions can be a little sandy here most of the path is grassy and should be good even in wetter conditions.

A nice fire road through the forest that has several interesting landmarks, including Nissen huts and a cafe themed for WW2, there is also an interesting pirate retreat / bar. Surface is good and towards the end turns into concrete so should be good all around the year for most bikes other than road bikes.

A nice memorial here to the 8th Army and it's campaign in Africa during World War II. Nestled within the the outskirts of the King's forest there are a number of other memorials and structures related to 8th Army training here.
