RAF Cranwell is just over the road from where the photo was taken. There is an aviation museum at the beginning of this trail, plenty car parking available

Lovely little cafe, good selection of meals and sweet treats for most appetites. Outdoor seating next to bike parking is a great touch. Highly recommended.

NT doesn't encourage cycling in the wider estate, but it's straightforward to cycle through in either direction from the main entrance along the newly resurfaced mile long South Drive and through the (time controlled) pedestrian gate onto Belton Lane. Recently they've been giving out coffee vouchers to people arriving on foot or by cycle at the entrance booths near the car park. They're trying to encourage low carbon visitors.

Nothing to access. Sign on side of road. Bit of Lincolnshire history

Excellent little cafe called the Tack Room. Plenty of outdoor seating with limited indoor seating. Very nice local food and drink. Loads of bike parking within sight of the outdoor tables. Worth calling them up front if going as a large group of cyclists. Just be careful with your road cleats on the gravel.
