follow blue line clockwise
We started our walk at South Fawley , and then towards Whatcombe, where we came across an amazing house with beautiful gardens and very well designed trees. As we made our way round the side of the house and up the hill we were able to see Whatcombe Racing Stables which is one of the largest and oldest training centres in the UK and is set in 450 acres, boasting 5 sets of gallops ( three grass and two all weather surfaces ), an Equine pool and Indoor School...we continued through the fields, with delightful views, passing Pounds Farm, Cranes Farm and Old Warren...and back round to South Fawley.

ReplyDeleteGee I can hardly wait to be able to walk like that again! I'm getting better but can only walk slowly for about 20 minutes around the neighbourhood.
ReplyDeleteThe estate and surroundings are breathtakingly gorgeous and serene! I'm envious...we are still waiting for a free weekend with nice weather to get out and about. We miss our mountain treks!
ReplyDeleteIt's funny the pictures of the countryside are so identical to some of our countryside. I can't wait til summer!
