Overview

A moderately hilly but pretty easy walk in lovely countryside with some outstanding views.

From Ebrington we follow a gently undulating route, through fields and woods, to eventually circle round the back of Foxcote Manor. We then make a steady ascent, past Foxcote Farm, to reach a broad ridge, from where we can enjoy some fabulous views. Carrying on past some radio masts, we then descend steadily on a stony track down to Hidcote Manor, where we will stop for a snack break. From there we continue, through the hamlet of Hidcote Boyce and across fields, back to Ebrington.
