Perfect walk with middle age kids. A surprise to see half way with a flask of tea and a couple of biscuits : )

Well worth the minor detour off the surrounding cycle routes to see the picturesque square, with views of the Castle, plus the excellent White Horse pub and an excellent tearoom.

This is a good starting point, there is a big car park where maybe 30 cars can fit in, always spaces. Park benches and a toilet block are also in the car park. Many people use this car park to access several pubs in the small village
