The second route begins in the picturesque village of Adlestrop, where charming old and new houses, thatched and stone roofs, and lovely gardens await.

You will walk along the Macmillan Way to the lovely village of Chastleton where you will see Chastleton House, with its Jacobean architecture and rich history. If time allows, visit the historic house (admission charges apply).

This is an easy route with just one gentle hill meanders through serene meadows, fields, and country lanes. Refreshments available at Chastleton House.

25/8/26 - fantastic walk

Walker review

No refreshments at Chastleton house but the church next door provides tea, coffee and cakes. ...Hosrses in a field on path but easy to take alternative track.

Walker review

Really enjoyed this walk, unfortunately Chaselton House was shut. Quite muddy walking through the woods, so need to wear appropriate footwear...

There is a section of walking through Adlestrop park and a beautiful stretch along the Diamond Way, visiting the villages of Daylesford and Lower Oddington.

There is some roadside walking on this route.

Beautiful walk through countryside on a sunny Easter Sunday.

Walker review

Very good. A few sections dogs need to be on leads and a short bit on quite a busy road. Other than that very enjoyable and great coffee and cake stop at Daylesford.

Walker review

Lovely walk with an enticing opportunity to stop at Daylesford Organic Farm Shop along the way

Walker review

Nice walk in the Cotswolds, just no public area to really park your car. I personally ended up just leaving my car in a layby and using the app to find the route and followed it.

The longest adventure from Adlestrop is a beautiful long walk through fields, woodland and cotswold villages.

There is some road walking in places but it's mainly countryside and there are some nice places to stop for refreshments on route.
