A very interesting walk - along steady climb at the start, otherwise easy. It is worth spending time looking around All Saints Church followed by a visit the Ostrich PH for a lunch time pint and good food - walkers (and dogs) are welcome.

As beginners we found the walk very hard at first - the description does not mention a steep track at the beginning of the walk! We nearly gave up before we had started. Its described as an "easy walk" which was not the case for us. I also suggest a mention of the Boat Pub, in whose car park we parked. Good for a rest and a nice pub lunch after what was for us a long and exhausting walk.
