A lovely trail all round! Picturesque scenery, opportunities to explore the pigeon tower, pike, etc. and surrounded by nature! Can be steep and rocky at times so good footwear is advised. The trail got a little confusing near the farm - particularly when walking through the horses fields, but other than that absolutely wonderful trail!
