Re Overnight Stops Feature

This is a really useful addition - thank you. One further feature I would love to see would be the option to set the overnight stop according to amount of ascent rather than distance.  Riding across the Cambridgeshire Fens for 60 miles is a somewhat different proposition to 60 miles in the Lake District! ;-)

Accommodation and Existing Routes [queries/suggestions]

Hi... stumbled across this resource by accident and it is going to make life a lot easier so, straightaway.... thanks for all the effort that must be going into developing and maintaining it.  I have a couple of queries.

My experience with touring is that quite often things don't pan out as planned....  turning up at a non-existent campsite, or one that only takes caravans, or 70 miles in the mountains on a loaded tourer really was a bit over ambitious, or (quite often) ending up in a place that is not on the original planned route.  The "find accommodation" feature is really useful at the planning stage - I could see real benefit if there was an option to "show accommodation near me" so that it could be used on the go.  I can see a way of "forcing" this by drawing a new short route near where I am but it would be great, particularly in the wet / dark, to have a "button".... even better if there could be the option to route to a place to stay!

Secondly, I've got loads of routes planned in other online resources - is it possible to import a .gpx file into cycle.travel?

Many thanks
