Lovely quiet roads, watch out for the cattle grids

This spot on the path around Avington Lake offers great views across the parkland to Avington House, a grand, 16th-century, Grade I-listed mansion.

Waters are crystal clear!

Avington Park is a historic country estate with rich history that dates back to the 10th century, with the current manor house being constructed in the late 17th century. The estate has been owned by several prominent families throughout the centuries, and it remains a privately-owned property. It's also famous for its serene lake, situated close to the manor house and Avington Park Lane which is part of National Cycle Network route 23.

Abbotswood Nature Reserve has recently been opened by the Test Valley Borough Council, as part of the nearby housing development. There are several ponds which support a large population of Great Crested Newts.

Lovely pub in the village too. Seating at the front so you can keep an eye on your pride and joy.

The duck pond in the small village of Crawley. A nice place for a break with benches and pretty views. Watch out for the ducks!

Avington Park is a private country estate available for private bookings. It dates back as early as 961 and was a priory until Henry VIII took the estate for the crown. Later King Charles II lived here for around 10 years. Occupied by the US army during WW2 it was rescued and restored by the Hickson family after the war.
