Festival of Cycling at Levens Hall

In the summer of 2027, the Tour de France will host the men's stages across Scotland and the North of England as part of their 2027 Grand Depart Great Britain. This marks the very first time this prestigious cycling race will visit Cumbria! One of these stages will be from Keswick to Liverpool, cycling through the Lake District.

Levens Hall is in prime position for this route and we are opening our doors for everyone to enjoy!

Join us for this extended weekend 1st - 4th July
as we celebrate all aspects of the cycling world

From ultra distance challenges to Sunday morning rides, from cargo bikes to e-bikes to gravel bikes and tricycles... there will be something for everyone no matter how fast, far or often you ride!

You can come on Thursday and stay for the whole weekend on our glamping site, or visit us just for the day and enjoy all the festivities that will surround this magnificent weekend.

Live from Levens Hall

You will be able to watch the Tour de France peloton and their large entourage speed past!

You will experience the sound of the bikes racing, the helicopters chasing and the spectators cheering. There will also be large screens placed throughout the gardens to show the full race coverage over the weekend

We’re just minutes from Junction 36 of the M6, with 780 metres of race viewing space so everyone gets a proper view. You can stay on site too, with camping, glamping and motor home space available.

Working with Kendal Mountain Festival
