This is a linear walk that features plenty of things to keep young walkers motivated from ancient trees, a tea-room, riverside pubs with play areas, a natural woodland play area, a village playground, a paddling spot and a farm shop.

We were really excited to visit Hampshire Pantry after it opened and a quick study of the map showed us that we could walk directly to the farm by starting at the superb play area at Oliver’s Battery and hiking over Compton Down with lovely views.

Marvel at the medieval mizmaze, breathe in the scent of millions of bluebells, admire the Elizabethan mansion, take in the views, sip tea in the courtyard and wander around the idyllic village. We couldn’t recommend a walk on the Breamore Estate more.

Nestled at the centre of The South Downs, Midhurst is home to the country estate of Cowdray. Our easy, pushchair friendly walk begins at their excellent farm shop and café and passes by the polo grounds and impressive heritage ruins.

At the heart of this easy walk near Petersfield is the pick-your-own farm where strawberries, blueberries, raspberries and blackberries are ripe for the picking in summer and pumpkins in autumn.
