ウェストウェルの湖・トップ5

This is a beautiful open stretch of the Pilgrims way .

Field crossing near the church besides a picturesque lake

Strictly speaking a footpath, but well used by cyclists. Just be courteous to any walkers you meet. Punchy little off-road climb near the top, coming up from the mill.

Eastwell Park is a large area of parkland and a country estate in the civil parish of Eastwell, adjoining Ashford, Kent, in England. It was owned by the Earls of Winchilsea for more than three centuries. Over time, successive buildings have served as homes to Sir Thomas Moyle, the Earls of Winchilsea and Nottingham, Prince Alfred, Duke of Edinburgh, and others. The estate is now mainly a farming concern, raising crops and sheep. Part of the estate is landscaped to include a large shallow lake that can be fished and the distinctive Eastwell Towers. The largest building on the site today is Eastwell Manor, a stately home that was rebuilt on a smaller scale during the 1920s using much of the material from the previous larger house, which is now operated as a country house hotel. Hence the Manor and Towers are only Grade II listed.[1]

Flat gravel track besides the lake and railway tracks.

Gravel bars fit through the gate, MTB bars don't
