Walker review

An enjoyable easy to follow walk, half solitary muddy paths and the rest on sealed surface - I went anticlockwise. Lots of sheep enroute which means lambs in spring!

Walker review

Really lovely walk, some quite steep parts so not for those with mobility issues. Very muddy so wear the right footwear. There were a couple of the V shaped styles which our large dog couldnt jump through so we had to pick her up.

Walker review

Great walk with varied views. But be prepared to climb the hill. Shame there’s no pub in the village.

Walker review

Dont do this walk with dogs as there are sheep everywhere plus pheasants in the woods. Found this walk a harder one as there are lots of hills and rough terrain. Nevertheless ot was very enjoyable.

Walker review

20/5/25 - very pleasant walk. Dumbleton village is a very pretty Cotswold village. Despite the lack of recent rain one muddy patch in the middle of a field

Walker review

One style at the beginning which we had to lift our labrador over. Lovely route, lots of bluebells, couple of climbs.

Enjoyable walk with stunning views. Sheep in many of the fields and large number of pheasants, particularly in woodland.
