We decided to venture slightly further afield last Sunday and decided on the Devil's Punchbowl near Hindhead in Surrey. We'd not been there for many years, certainly well before we had the dogs and were pleasantly surprised to find the busy road alongside has now disappeared thanks to the completion of the tunnel.
We walked up to the trip point with lovely views back to the North Downs. It was still overcast at this point but given the torrential downpour on the way this was a nice surprise.
And over to the celtic cross.
We then dropped down into the Punchbowl itself, what a lovely spot to live although it's a fair old walk to the pub. The day was beginning to brighten up by this time.
Heidi enjoyed herself as usual, particularly with the ponies.
And walked back through the trees with occasional glimpses back towards the bowl.
The view from the car park.
For post walk refreshment we visited The Woolpack in Elstead. A pleasant enough pub although clearly more geared to food and dog friendly but be warned they have rabbits running loose in the beer garden. We opted to sit inside...
