    Hi, The nearest postcode is DT11 0SF for the village of shillingstone,if i rememeber rightly once there, there are uk bikepark signs to follow. If not, i found this info. hope it helps. Problem is you will be coming from the west. If you use this postcode: DT11 0SF this will provide you with directions to the village of shillingstone at the base of the bike park.

    Assuming you are traveling into shillingstone from Blandford Direction (ie from the east) you must continue alon gthe main road exiting shillingstone for approximately 1 mile until you reach a cross roads called 'new cross'. Here you must turn left off the main road following the sign for okeford fitzpaine approx 1 mile from the main road. Travel through the village not turning off the road until you have exited the village and are travelling uphill through a tree tunnel. At the top of the tree tunnel the road forks and you must take the road to the left continuing uphill. The road will continue uphill and once at the brow of the hill slow down to take a track to the left 30 metres further on. Follow the track and you have arrived at Ukbikepark..

    anyproblems call the park phone on: 07881571069

    I thought that might have been the case, but mentioned it anyway just to be on the safe side.
