Staunton Country Park

Staunton Country Park has received a bit of a makeover in the last year or so. A brand new tea room, interpretation centre, play area and car park are some of the best new features, as well as other restorations to the site of the old house and its follies. A walk around the lake will not take long, but you could easily spend a whole afternoon here with all there is to do.

  • We joined Bird Aware Solent for a guided birdwatching walk at Warsash Shore. This was such a brilliant way for us to learn about the birds we spot on our walks as well as what steps walkers can take to care for them.

  • A spot of golden winter sun and salty sea air was just what was needed one Sunday afternoon when we headed down to Hayling Island to revise our walk at Sinah Beach.

  • It was a rather chilly day to be updating this New Forest walk near Burley, but we got some lovely photos of the frozen Whitten Ponds. This walk has pushchair and bike friendly options.

  • We couldn’t turn down the offer to try a roast dinner at The Exchequer, near Hook. Find the family and god friendly pub on one of our Basingstoke canal walks.
