We are the South Cotswold Ramblers. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.

From Stanway House we will pass Didbrook, Hailes Church where we will stop to view the medieval paintings, Hailes Wood, Farmcote Church then up to Stumps Cross, returning on the Cotswold Way past Lower Coscombe. Starting off on the flat and then it's a long but steady climb up to the top of the escarpment for lovely views. The descent is steeper with some steps. Three stiles. Coffee stop only on the walk but bring a picnic to have after the walk before the house and gardens open and the fountain plays. Coffee shop in the garden for further refreshments which opens at 2pm.
This walk is to coincide with the Stanway House Watergarden opening and the 300 foot single jet fountain which plays at 2.45pm and 4pm. The house is also open to visitors as is the nearby fully restored watermill. Please check the website stanwayfountain.co.uk for further information and prices. CASH ONLY
