Overview

This is only for those on the Spice National weekend at Denstone.

Blow away the hangover with our walk on Sunday morning in the Staffordshire countryside. We'll walk south from the college and out across fields towards the former Woodseat Hall. We'll cross the new (nearly ready to open) JCB golf course to the hamlet of Combridge. We'll then head back north along the roadside for a short time and join the Churnet Way passing the JCB World Headquarters and its lake. Finally we'll head back into the village of Denstone to The Tavern.

If you want to join us for lunch here then please also book Sunday Lunch at The Tavern in Denstone. Otherwise you could stop for a drink or make your way back to the college, which is only around half a mile further along the road.

Location & Itinerary

Is this for me?

This is only for those on the Spice National Weekend at Denstone College.

The round trip is about five miles of walking and the route is very level - no hills!

There are several styles to cross and parts of the route are on overgrown rough paths.

We will cross several fields that are likely to contain cattle so it's probably not for the bovinophobic unless you feel ready to face your fears!

Meeting Point

Meet outside the main entrance to The Lodge ready to walk at 11am.

We have permission to leave cars in the car park at the college.

Host & Everything Else

You'll need walking shoes or boots as some of the paths are overgrown and the ground is very hard and rough in places due to weeks of dry weather, and could get quite muddy if there is heavy rain. Dress for the weather on the day. Due to the undergrowth you may want to think about taking long walking trousers or zip offs - wear shorts at your own risk! Bring a bottle of water.

Be sure to have packed your things up and put them in the car before the walk as we have to vacate the rooms before we will be back. We have permission to leave cars in the car park at the college.

Put on some suncream if it's the sunny day that we're hoping for!
