Walking in the countryside will lift your spirits, brighten your mood and fill your body with sparkly bubbles, well endorphins actually but if it’s got your attention that’s great! Take a ramble over the top of Corton Denham ridge for breathtaking views at one of our high points. Further a field you can walk on to Corton Denham view point which overlooks miles and miles of Somerset, over to Glastonbury Tor and beyond. A red light at night, on the hill of the view point, can be seen from Dove Retreat, which indicates the high ground for aircraft. Cadbury Castle is just a few miles on from there, a castle site of King Arthur, which is a wonderful tale and I really like to believe he and his knights rode horseback across our fields.
There is an easy 45 minute stroll around the village of Rimpton’s fields. Just follow the public footpath signs in a circle and simply enjoy a stroll in nature. Start at our gate and follow the road under the tree, as in the picture below.
