Pure Mountains' Bike Holiday Guests and Comments
Pure Mountains welcomes guests of all ages, including 13 to 17 year olds if accompanied by a parent. Some people come in couples or with friends or family, others on their own. Some are avid bikers who want to ride 'til they drop, while others are content to do some biking and quite a lot of relaxing. We are particularly pleased that a large percentage of our guests are women.
You are welcome to bring your dog with you. Please contact us for more information.
Here are some comments.
“An exceptionally good holiday”

-- Kama Wager
“Brilliant”
-- John Hairsine
“Thank you for a brilliant week . I had a great time and the company of our little group helped make it the success it was. I enjoyed the remoteness of location, the variety of rides and particularly the attention you gave to each of us in the group so far as ability was concerned and the way that you coaxed us instead of flogging us!!”
-- Robert Back
“I can only express how impressed I was with the riding. The balance between double, single track and more technical riding was spot on.”
-- James Poole
“Seriously, a fantastic holiday. Extremely well set up and planned with excellent guides.”
-- Ian Burton
“Still talking about the holiday to everyone, we just can't explain to people how fantastic it was. We are still on a high from the excellent scenery, food, accommodation, guiding and of course the trails!!”
-- Kath Thornley and Mick Fleming
“We had an excellent time and have really noticed an improvement in our riding since we've been home - no granny ring! Thanks for all the hints and tips.”
-- Paul and Katie
“Just to say how much we enjoyed our stay with you. It was my idea of a perfect holiday to work hard on the bike on terrific trails and arrive at a sumptuous picnic with chairs!”
-- Sylvia Gummery
"We had so much fun, everyone enjoyed it and gained lots from it, especially in terms of confidence on the bike”
-- Ruth Thompson
“If there is a magic formula for mtb holidays then you've found it and improved on it! For me to have had one of the truly memorable holidays of my sporting life is a true testament to your endeavours and a great part of the success is you yourselves and the way you blend in as friends and not just hosts.
We ALL had a superb time... superb cuisine... Lucy adds the icing to the cake as having a brilliant dog around is great when you have to leave your own behind...”
-- Simon Taylor
“a fantastic week. Everything was superb - food, biking, back up, accommodation and company. We really enjoyed ourselves. Personally I really felt that I made an immense transition on the biking front thanks to all your efforts on the guiding and confidence”
-- Buster Nixon
“I hooked up with a great company called Pure Mountains who took me on some great biking trails. My last day was a 3 hrs 12 mile climb gaining 1400m up to 2700m (with breathtaking views, etc), followed by 13 miles of singletrack/cross country back to the start point. They are situated near a village called Bérchules located in a lush valley, which narrows into a gorge at the top - the gorge itself providing some great rocky technical singletrack.
Tim and Jenny were excellent, and a days biking includes coffee and lunch stops in the middle of nowhere at the back-up Land Rover. Think of coming off a 20 minute, 3 mile swoopy forest singletrack to croissants and coffee at 2000m out the back of the Land Rover. ”
-- Peter Kavanagh
“Fantastic views, great riding, friendly, easy going hospitality, really expert guiding and the house is to die for. A fantastic Spanish mountain bike holiday.”
-- Sally Brown
“What a spectacular location and fabulous mountain biking - wide fire tracks, technical singletrack and manic downhill. Hire bikes were spot on for the terrain and in good order. Pure Mountains really know their stuff - rarely have we received such attention, guidance and support on a mountain biking holiday with the added bonus of lovely accommodation in a unique setting - streets ahead of the competition. We'll definitely be back for more”
-- Tony and Jacqui Longman
