Perfect for Dog Walks

Perfect for dog walks with the family. Then why not treat you furry friend to a treat at The Cow! Now serving Dog friendly ice cream from Rex's Range.

Enjoy the Wildlife along the way

The walk is mostly flat, with no stiles or steps, but you will pass through a couple of gates and may come across some muddy ground, so wear wellies if you can. It’s perfect for all ages and abilities, so makes a great family walk, with plenty of wildlife along the way.

Start at Tapnell Farm. You’ll head in the direction of The Causeway and down towards Freshwater Bay, before looping back on yourself in the direction of Wellow Down, until you return to where you started.
