Newark Park Loop Description
A walk on the Newark Park Loop is the perfect way to extend your visit to the Newark House. The National Trust owns this property, and there is a fee for parking and admission for non-members. During weekends it is recommended to reserve an entry time in advance. Be sure to check their website before arrival for details. Paths may be muddy in sections, so boots and wellies are recommended.
This pleasant walking trail is on a beautiful estate that was formerly a Tudor hunting lodge. Now that it belongs to the National Trust, it is open to the public and a great way to spend the afternoon exploring the Gloucestershire countryside. The walking route is well marked, so you can focus on enjoying the fresh air and wildflowers as you explore the park.
