It’s a lovely route, but given the bad weather over the last few days, the first kilometre (up and down through the woods) is quite dangerous for someone with a disability; there are lots of slippery stones. Otherwise, the rest of the route is very accessible.

A lovely circular loop. A few gentle hills. A stretch through the cool woods.
Beautiful views.
No particular difficulty in following the route. It’s signposted with markers. I followed my Etrex 10 and had no problems. The church is magnificent.

With someone with limited mobility (sensitive hips) and a 5-year-old child, this walk allowed us to get some fresh air for an hour and a half, take lots of photos of flowers and fields, so it was just right for a very easy walk.
Note that there is a short stretch along the road, but it isn’t very busy (11.30 am on 1 June, Whit Sunday).
