Fonthill Park – William Beckford’s family estate – Part 3
A morning four-mile walk exploring a different area of the estate to the previous two walks at Fonthill, walking up a small river valley, over the hill to pass the walled gardens, walk as close as a public footpath passes to Fonthill Abbey site, then past the Beckford Arms to Fonthill Lake and back to Riverbarn, where David and Liam will serve lunches. Pre-order lunch before the walk on the day.
We will start the walk from the Riverbarn Cafe, owned by David and Liam, where we can park and have a pre-walk bacon butty and coffee, returning for lunch.
Give yourself time to enjoy the pre-walk fare by arriving 10:15/10:30.
The Riverbarn has bed and breakfast rooms.
