Overview

An autumn stroll around the Cliveden estate.  We'll head up the Green Drive to the Water Garden.  After a stop for coffee, we'll continue through the Long Garden, across the Parterre and down to Spring Cottage, the riverside lovenest at the centre of the Profumo scandal.  A final climb through the woods brings us back to the car park.

No dogs.
