Back
The Walk
As soon as you go in, leave the metalled path by going left on a well used footpath through the woods. Cross a second metalled path and when the fence on the left turns away, bear half right across to the stream. Follow the stream with it on your right and continue up the side of the long waterfall to climb steeply back up to the lake.
Turn left to walk east side of the lake and at the far end, as the path startsto turn, go sharp left on a path which climbs up through the oaks near the Pitch & Putt.
At the top go right on a metalled path running between wire and wooden fences to emerge back onto Bourne Hill Road.
Finally, go right down the hill back to the Woodman Pub.
