BODIAM CASTLE COUNTRY WALKS NEAR LONDON England Hiking UK

Type: Interesting

Description:
Robertsbridge Circular walk
Quiet, rolling hills, Bodiam Castle (NT), with a gentler finish.

This walk is full of small delights: a nature reserve and lake with Japanese pavilion down by the stream below the impressive gardens and park of Nymans (National Trust) with its part-ruined manor house; a churchyard in Slaugham (pronounced 'Slaffam') with a 600-year-old yew tree some 10 metres in circumference; the ruins of Slaugham Manor; then a walk down to the River Ouse – with the incongruous sight of a Roman arch and columns in the middle of nowhere – and later up through fields and woods to the fine old village of Balcombe.
