Bentley

Bury Court Farm Cafe is a real treat to find at the side of a footpath! A gorgeous cafe in a country courtyard. If there are no events on the day of your visit, you can also view the exquisite gardens and fishpond. To complete this family outing, we have created a walk that links the cafe to the well-equipped play area in Bentley.

Allbrook to Bishopstoke

This linear route explores the section of the Itchen way between Allbrook and Bishopstoke. The water is in view to your side throughout the whole walk and it is easy to spot wildlife in the clear water. The recreation ground in Bishopstoke provided a sensible turning back point, after a play at the little park.

Most days, I drive up the A3 and at this time of year the autumn colours on the wooded hillside of Queen Elizabeth Country Park always catch my eye. If you have spotted them too and want to investigate closer try this self-guided walk.
