Athelhampton Walk Tuesday 21st February 2023

Join the Gardening Team on a 4.5 mile countryside walk from Athelhampton House & Gardens followed by a delicious homemade lunch in the restaurant. 

The walk begins through our formal gardens, before venturing past the Church of St Edward and onto a footpath leading into Cowpound Wood. The walk will take in some of the local sites, passing farms, across fields and include a short trip alongside the River Piddle with plenty of Snowdrops to see.

The walk will be lead by one of the Gardeners, who is a fully qualified Walk Leader and first aid trained, with 5 years experience leading walks across East Dorset.
