The Long Walk as the name says clearly, is at least a 2 mile straight line walk from Windsor Castle gate to the King George Horse statue where tarmac ends. Its located in Great Windsor Park and used for all kind of Royal activities, weddings, funerals, special occasions and most recently Prince Harry wedding. It's kind of mistake to come here on summer weekends because it gets more crowded than M25 but generally winter midweeks when the weather forces people to stay indoors, you can walk the long lonely road by yourself. The best time is of course the autumn afternoons when sunlight is shining through the perfectly lined 2 tree columns. The walk itself is not only refreshing, calming, scenic but easy too. Even a child in pram can do it. I love it so much that I drive 7 miles from where I live to come here, park and walk. Because here I can get my daily dose of outdoors without getting mud on my shoes.

Set high above the Thames with far-reaching views, Cliveden’s impressive gardens and majestic woodlands capture the grandeur of a bygone era. There's lots going on around the estate whether it's for a gentle stroll through the formal gardens or a race through the woods with the children, dogs and adults - Cliveden has something for everyone, and everyone's welcome!

Such beautiful gardens need a visit. Families and dogs are welcome which is lovely to see. The water gardens and pools reminded us of Monets paintings. There is a playground for children, lovely sculptures about the gardens, lots of different specimens of trees and flowers including a rose garden planted with David Austin roses. The smell was delightful!
7. Lewes Priory Park
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 55 reviews
Founded in the 11th century by monks from Cluny in France, the Priory of St Pancras survived until the Dissolution of the Monasteries in 1537. There is much to see at Priory Park. Walk in the footsteps of medieval monks and imagine how the buildings once looked with the aid of our interpretation panels. A herb garden grows plants that monks would have used for medicinal, culinary and ceremonial purposes. The South Downs frame the site; providing a spectacular setting. Open all year round, free entry.

well worth doing, and a cold drink at the Spyglass Inn in Ventnor as a reward, the walk on to Steephill Cove is delightful.

We enjoyed an afternoon walking from the shops along the promenade at Lymington overlooking the Yacht Haven. There is so much activity-we watched the I.O.W. Ferry leaving, the R.N.L.I. rescue launch returning with a patient and all sorts of small craft and activities.

Reviewed By Mb7400 - London, United Kingdom
After working from home, in the morning, I required food from a supermarket in nearby Cobham (to concoct a superb Prawn, Broad Bean, Brussel Sprout and Paneer Phall Curry), so I thought I would take my daily hour exercise here. Last time I was here, was unquestionably 1992, as myself and school mates used to drink, occasionally, at the Anchor Pub - albeit, it now felt like 1892. As you come off the A3 to get to the Lock, you bypass the famous Wisley Gardens, followed by the very quaint Wisley Village, per se, before arrival. The only negative? There is a Sewage Treatment works which does, sadly, put a slight downer on things. The Lock area itself, is picturesque - a beautiful Weeping Willow tree hangs, majestically, on one side. Ducks, Grebes and Mallards can be found swimming around, in large numbers, near the Lock, and there are also a large number of Canal boats, in one singular phalanx on the opposite side to the main path. The area is peaceful and tranquil - a golf course lies on one side; on the other some woods and fields. Overall a very pleasant area to visit.
