Join me in exploring the Ozleworth and Lasborough valleys, two of the most quaint and secluded vales in the Cotswolds. Offering picturesque rolling hills, enchanting valleys and captivating woodland, this is one of the most charming and peaceful walks in the Cotswolds. We’ll start the walk at the chocolate-box hamlet of Ozleworth near Wotton-under-Edge and we’ll first explore the quaint Ozleworth Park. Boasting picturesque cottages, a Norman church, a stately mansion and tree-lined avenues, Ozleworth Park will enchant you at every twist and turn. We’ll then follow a bubbling stream across the secluded Bagpath valley. Next, we’ll walk through the enchanting Lasborough Park. Nested in a charming valley, Lasborough Park features a medieval manor house, an imposing farm and stunning parkland, and offers idyllic and picture-perfect scenery. We’ll finally walk through the peaceful and wooded Ozleworth Bottom which is filled with lush trees, earthy colours, gleaming lakes and bubbling waters. This circular walk is 6 miles long, takes 3 to 3 ½ hours, and includes steep ascents and muddy, overgrown paths. Throughout this walk, I’ll endeavour to share my passion and knowledge of the Cotswolds, and especially, the Ozleworth and Lasborough valleys. Dogs on a lead are welcome. Not suitable for pushchairs or wheelchairs. Additional dates available (message me).

Welcome to Cotswold Mountain Biking where I aim to share my passion for off-road cycling, by providing guided mountain bike rides for adults and children (over 13 years) on the Cotswold Escarpment close to Stroud & Dursley. Great for a couple or small group looking for a private outdoor experience, we'll meet at my home, where I'll go over bike checks, ride safety and trail etiquette before we head off on a network of tracks, bridleways and minor roads that'll be great fun as well as one of the best ways to discover the area. The rides are scheduled on Saturdays & Sundays but if you'd prefer another day please message me and I will advise availability. The ride will be a 'round route' that takes approx 3.5 hours including rest and photo stops. Along the way, I’ll point out key features of the Cotswold landscape, the wildlife and the views across the River Severn into Wales. The rides are typically 25-30 km long with 600-800 m ascent (and descent!) although the weather, trail conditions and your riding experience will all be considered to ensure that you & your friends get maximum enjoyment. The rides are best suited to competent cyclists who have a good level of fitness although, I have electric mountain bikes for hire that will have you smiling all the way! The hire bikes are an additional charge of £30 (conventional bike) or £55 (electric bike)
