Croft Castle Parkland walk for the tree lovers.
During this walk we will visit all famous Seven Ghost trees, Candelabra Oak, Quarry Oak, ancient Spanish Chestnut Avenue, Lime Avenue and few more unusual trees . This walk will be around 4 miles long, with the actual length depending on the group's pace, as there are many points of interest along the way. The terrain is mostly flat, with small inclines. As we will be crossing pastures, please wear walking boots or wellingtons, as it could be very wet and muddy in some places.
Lunch is planned at the tea-room (please bring money for lunch or packed lunch with you)
