Overview

A nice, flat, gentle walk, and I promise no hills or extra miles. Takes in Thoulstone (the old golf course), The Drove, Upton Scudamore, Biss Bottom, Old Dilton, Dilton Marsh and Short Street. Delightful countryside and great views. We end at the newly opened Pavillion Cafe in Thoulstone where I for one will be having a coffee and cake. Please join me.
