Horsebridge & King’s Somborne

Starting in Horsebridge near the old station, this walk makes its way to the larger village of King’s Somborne. The route will take you straight through the recreation ground, with a kid’s play area, to the church and pub. The homeward stretch rises over the countryside before descending towards the meadows of the River Test with a ford where children can paddle.

Staunton Country Park

Staunton Country Park has received a bit of a makeover in the last year or so. A brand new tea room, interpretation centre, play area and car park are some of the best new features, as well as other restorations to the site of the old house and its follies. A walk around the lake will not take long, but you could easily spend a whole afternoon here with all there is to do.

What’s new?

  • What was once a linear walk at Breamore, has now become an absolute show stopper of a walk with bluebells, cafe, historic home, museum and miz-maze. This walk really shows the best of the English countryside.

  • I have updated our bluebell walk at Stoke Park Wood, Bishopstoke, and it now includes a family friendly pub and an extra bluebell wood!

  • A little change to this route at Whitchurch means you can now start it at the silk mill and pass a play area. This one has been really popular on our social media, so have a look and see why.

  • Path improvements mean that this walk around the Chidham Peninsula in Chichester Harbour National Landscape can now be done at low or high tide.

  • Daffodil Valley at Valley Gardens, Windsor Great Park is not to be missed in March. It was the perfect time to update this walk whilst enjoying daffodils as far as the eye could see.

  • We went back for another walk around Frensham Little Pond and have adapted the route slightly to include Snowball Ridge viewpoint. The rest of the route circles the pond and ends at the cafe overlooking the water.
