We are the North Dorset Ramblers. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.
This is a moderate walk through undulating countryside. Parking is at Melbury Osmond village hall and the walk goes through this lovely village into the grounds of Melbury House. The walk continues through the quaint village of Evershot then follows a path through open countryside to Lewcombe. From Lewcombe the route follows a bridleway back to Melbury Osmond.
The walk will afford lovely scenery, both countryside and village with views towards distant Motte and bailey castles, with ample opportunities for breaks. There are some stiles but towards the end of this walk there is a high stile followed by a short descent on a ladder onto stepping stones across a small stream!
There is ample parking at Melbury village hall, but a donation of £2.00 per vehicle would be appreciated.

There is only one road in to Melbury Osmond. Access is from the A37 Yeovil to Dorchester road. On entering the minor road keep going until there is a very sharp left turn at a junction. Turn left and the hall is the first building on the right.
