A circular walk starting at Knightshayes National Trust car park. We walk through the estate heading west to Marley and on to Firebeacon Lane. Traversing south we walk through estate woodland to Knightshayes house and on through the Plantation to Chettiscombe. Following Leverlake Lane south we head north past Peadhill and to the hamlet of Chevithorne. Back to Chettiscombe and onto the estate we take in the views of Knightshayes Court then back to the CP.
