On site, at Tewinbury
Walks
“From peaceful strolls around scenic parks to hikes along old railway lines, there are plenty of places to scout out, right on our doorstep.”
A handy walking map can be collected from Reception. Routes include walks and runs from 0.7 to 4.8km in length. They take in the surrounding countryside and the nearby Tewin village.
Walking paraphernalia is available in the ‘Boot Room’ for guests staying on site.
Playground
Handily located behind the main reception building, in front of the bluebell wood, is a small adventure playground for our younger guests with swings, slides and a climbing frame.
Parental guidance advised!
The Farm & Animal Valley
Tewinbury Farm, as the name suggests is a working farm. From cows and pigs to alpacas there are all sorts of creatures to find.
Alpaca feed is available to buy at reception… if you’re brave enough… and the alpacas are brave enough to meet you too!
