Ding-ding, round three! Yes, with Summer’s passing and Autumn’s arrival, we officially commence our third year of blogging our walks. On a side note, I did some rough calculations the other day. We are currently sitting at seventy-seven walks recorded; however I reckon that we had already gone on thirty to forty-ish walksContinue reading “Cranbrook to Benenden Circular – 9.5 miles”

Brede Circular – 10.7 miles
Then suddenly here we are, at the end of the summer. For our last adventure of the season, we had saved a new route found on the OS app. Beginning in Brede and heading to Staplecross and back (to places we have greatly enjoyed walking previously), this was on paper the perfect walk toContinue reading “Brede Circular – 10.7 miles”
Lamberhurst to Goudhurst Circular – 9 miles
WE GOT MARRIED! After all the planning and practicing and gathering of wool and moss, the day has finally been and gone. Together, we completed our shortest but most important of walks; the one up the aisle. We were married just outside of Ticehurst, overlooking the High Weald on a bright and sunnyContinue reading “Lamberhurst to Goudhurst Circular – 9 miles”
Chiddingstone Causeway Circular (Attempt 2) – 4.3 miles
Despite a grey and windy start, the afternoon looked promising as we neared the day’s starting point. We had decided to make our second attempt at this particular route thanks to Guinea Pig related duties having pulled us in that general direction, after our first attempt was washed out back in November. We arrived atContinue reading “Chiddingstone Causeway Circular (Attempt 2) – 4.3 miles”
Hadlow Down Circular – 6.5 miles
A thing has happened! With a beautiful warm day painted outside our bedroom window, I took the easy decision to not only smear myself in suncream’s familiar happy smell, but also don my shorts, a whole month earlier than last year. Aww yeah. Was this the best day ever? Only time wouldContinue reading “Hadlow Down Circular – 6.5 miles”
Hadlow Circular – 6.6 miles
Clear skies and unseasonably warm temperatures awaited us for our latest adventure, as we set off from the centre of Hadlow at around quarter to ten into what promised to be a perfect autumnal morning. We had chosen ‘The Hadlow Hop Tour’, which claimed to be about eight miles, although when we mapped itContinue reading “Hadlow Circular – 6.6 miles”
Cranbrook to Benenden Circular – 9.5 miles
We woke to a blue sky out the window, light pouring in from a day that promised to reach soaring temperatures. After a quick spicy-fried egg bagel for breakfast, we pegged the washing out before leaving, and already we could feel the heat of the day creeping in…were we making a mistake? WeContinue reading “Cranbrook to Benenden Circular – 9.5 miles”
Bignor Hill to Amberley Circular – 11.5 miles
Time for another of our further-afield adventures, this time really pushing the envelope, by delving all the way into West Sussex – a whole county further along than normal. The occasion occurred because the following day we were due to be going to the Goodwood Festival of Speed; my 30th birthday present from Beth. AsContinue reading “Bignor Hill to Amberley Circular – 11.5 miles”
Holmsley to Burley (New Forest) – 9.2 miles
Once again, we find ourselves outside of our usual stomping ground for another adventure on tour, this time in the peace and comfort of one of my very favourite places in the world – The New Forest. I have been visiting these trees for as long as I can remember, and it is aContinue reading “Holmsley to Burley (New Forest) – 9.2 miles”
Sissinghurst to Frittenden Circular – 5.4 miles
For our final winter walk of the year, we went for one we already have a certain amount of history with, a five-and-a-half-mile circular from Sissinghurst Castle. On paper, the route is relatively short and sweet, which indeed it is, however for some reason, we have never found it simple. This is specifically dueContinue reading “Sissinghurst to Frittenden Circular – 5.4 miles”
