When you're exploring Woodchester Park, take a moment to appreciate Kennel Pond. It's one of several lakes in the valley, and it's interesting to imagine its origins as one of the estate's fishing ponds. It offers a quiet spot to reflect on the historical landscape of the park.

Within Woodchester Park, you'll find the 19th-century boathouse, believed to be a John Adey Repton design. It houses a bat colony, so the interior isn't accessible for their protection. Nevertheless, it's a picturesque structure to observe from the outside.

If you find yourself in Gloucestershire, Woodchester Mansion in Nympsfield is worth considering. It's an unfinished Gothic revival house with a peculiar story, as construction halted in the mid-1870s, leaving it complete externally but with many interior spaces unfinished. The mansion opens seasonally to the public, and also seasonally houses a cafe. This unique state of preservation, along with a resident bat colony, makes for a rather distinct and thought-provoking visit.

Not a bad way to get up to Nympsfield / down to Coaley if you're bikepacking and want to avoid traffic on the narrow steep roads. The steep bit is not comfortable walking with a loaded bike but doable and fairly short (not possible to ride with road bikes). There are no gates or stiles, and the woods are lovely. And at the bottom, wonderful views and beautiful quiet roads down to Coaley and beyond.

Stanley Wood is a National Trust-owned ancient woodland located near the town of Stroud in the Cotswolds. It has a pleasant mix of up and downhill walking to get those legs working and is not overly travelled, allowing you to enjoy some peace and tranquillity.

Discover another of the delightful ponds located in Woodchester Park near Stroud. The ponds are located in the Inchbrook Valley and provide some wonderful scenery that makes for a perfect location for a stroll.

A typical Cotswold mixed beech wood on the hill below Haresfield Beacon. The trails are brilliant fun to run, fast downhill and tough uphill. The Cotswold Way long distance trail goes through the woodland.

The long, narrow hill of Cam Long Down stands separate from the main Cotswold escarpment, on the Cotswold Way between Dursley and Uley Bury. The distinctive wedge shape of Cam Peak, at the Dursley end of the Down, is a result of erosion and landslips. Enjoyable at any time of year, as with all the Cotswold limestone grasslands this area is particularly special in summer when it is ablaze with wildflowers and alive with bees, butterflies and other pollinators.
