An exquisite walk from beginning to end on paths, bridleways and tracks that lead through the most picturesque countryside. Gorgeous hedgerows and verges display their gems of colour and scent and birds sing their joyous songs from trees clothed in all their glory. The tiny communities of Middle and Higher Coombe add the interest of charming dwellings set amongst beautiful landscape and areas with curious names such as Morgan's Hanging, Windwhistle Corner and Long Bottom add further intrigue.

What a lovely walk on good paths (when dry)! Beautiful countryside, and wildlife to be seen, some nice houses to! Spot on walk details.
