| The
Surrounding Countryside |
| Do
you enjoy the countryside? The area surrounding us provides
some of the best views over the breathtaking Surrey countryside (we
are approximately
267 meters, 876 feet
above sea level).
There is a new cycle and pedestrian path that runs from Chelsham to the
Botley; this in itself provides
a great walk along side the farms and open fields. From several points
along this path you can look down across the whole of London, and the
Thames valley as far as Gillingham. If you are planning a day in the
country you could not choose a better place than the area surrounding
Botley Hill Farmhouse
to explore some spectacular walks, gardens and other places of interest.
This area of southern England is steeped in history and in fact the area
is mentioned in
the Doomsday Book. When you have finished soaking up all that culture
what better way of rounding off the day than soaking up some fine ales
or wines along with a delicious meal from our menu. Book your table by ringing:
01959 57715.in advance and be assured of a warm welcome. |
