Ardress House Walk Description
A perfect walking route for the autumn season, the Ardress House Walk will lead you through a lovely stretch of woodland landscape with views of a grand country house and surrounding apple orchards. This short walk is perfectly suited for all ages and skill levels.
Setting out from the trailhead at Ardress House, you will be able to take in some beautiful views of this 17th Century building that was originally built as a farmhouse and was later transformed during the Georgian period.

Eventually, you will arrive back at the trailhead where you began.
