A very pleasant and varied walk on the edge of the Greenway estate.

Difficulty:

Distance:3.7 miles

It does not enter the estate but follows part of the Greenway Walk and includes a steady climb.

The tranquility and beauty of the estate gave her the inspiration for many a plot.

Indeed, Poirot's last mystery Dead Man's Folly was filmed at Greenway.

It now belongs to the National Trust and is well worth a visit.
