There is a gorgeous 3km Tea Field walk straight out of the door. Lovely in the mornings and evenings.
7km Walk or ride through teafields to a lake swim spot and a great lunchtime restaurant - Ho K'Diep (see Eating Page for location) www.plotaroute.com/route/1265536
The Dam - a 2km each way walk to the local dam. Makes for a very lovely evening stroll with great views across lakeside tea and coffee fields and the distant town. The first 2km of this route:
Bike or Cycle from Coffeefield Cottage around the hill you can see on the left out of the back window.
In and out of coffee fields, the hill always on the horizon. There is always tar nearby if you prefer. Several Options - 40 to 60km

Bike or cycle from Coffeefield Cottage, via Damb'ri Falls to the 'Lake District'.
Ho (lake) Damb'ri is a stunning hidden gem! There is a very steep road in and out but it is well worth it. We had to walk a lot of it, both up and down. To get right around is possible, but very muddy in the wet. Lots of options for two wheels. If you don't go around you still have beautiful views, plus a lakeside road and a gorgeous river. 50 to 70k. Several options, up to 3 lakes. See The Place page if you want to get to the other Damb'ri Waterfall that few people ever get to ......

You can make this as long or short as you wish. Or join it on to one of the other routes here. Several options on this plot.
From Coffeefield Cottage around the hill you can see on the right out of the back window.
More tar on this one. And you can choose to go to the other side of the hill or stay on 'our' side. Several Options. 60 to 80k.
