My favourite walks closeby

A couple of minutes walk from the house off Brackenwood Drive. The Woods are an accessible enchanting green space. Signposted nature trail leads you along a stream to a lake with seating. The trail in the other direction the lets you cross Gledhow valley road and climb steps into the heart of Chapel Allerton village.
