Lovely weather this am, and with 3 kids in tow some great wildlife. Easyish walk for those with kids.
Good numbers of butterflies/ moths/ grasshoppers too for added interest.

And a great place it is, spent a holiday there as a kid and revisited in April about eight years ago - it was hotter then than it is now
