コセルストーンでののおすすめウォーキング＆ハイキングルート

Brilliant walking area and you might be fortunate enough to see horses

Mixed terrain trail through Woodland

This part of the path is a scramble. Full of fallen trees.

Amazing and outstanding area to explore 😀

An ideal place for dog walkers and trail seekers alike, Cothelstone Hill has great views and lots of paths and trails to explore. I approached this route slightly different completing it in a figure of eight direction. Instead of bearing left and heading south, I went west straight up to the view point and then down to the old plantation pathway. Some of the trails especially heading down towards Wilfs Path are overgrown and can be quite tricky to navigate. It’s recommended to wear hiking boots or wellies going into the autumn and winter months because some of the lower paths leading down to the road side are very muddy.

From this vantage point near Cothelstone Hill, you can enjoy tremendous views across the beautiful Quantocks. Not only is it a wonderful viewpoint, but the area is steeped in archaeological history. It is the site of a Bronze Age barrow, and home to the ruins of a folly and a post-medieval tree-ring enclosure.

This is a glorious woodland located near Cothelstone Hill in the southern end of the wonderful Quantock Hills. The route involves a little descent and ascent into and out of the valley which can be a little muddy after rainfall (so bring your wellies), but the scenery and views make it all worthwhile, trust!

Moderate trail with slight elevation and amazing views

Grassy slope up, steeper and rockier down.

Suggest doing on the way down. Amazing view

This Elizabethan manor lies on the south western edge of the Quantock Hills AONB and occupies a particularly serene spot. Built in 1646, it underwent significant rebuilding in the 1800s after being partially demolished during the civil war. Today, the manor is used as an event venue and is not generally open to the public. However, it has an impressive gate and a gatehouse, both of which are visible from the road. A footpath – part of the West Deane Way – runs alongside the manor, allowing you to get good views of its exquisite exterior. A Grade I-listed church lies immediately behind it.
