Coastal Pub Walk to the Horseshoe Inn at Marcross, South Glamorgan, Wales

This Week's Pub Walk... along the South Glamorgan coast to the Horseshoe Inn at Marcross

This circular pub walk returns to one of my firm favourites in South Glamorgan and this time to a yet another great pub. The Horseshoe Inn is a traditional village pub with log burners and a stone floor. It also plenty of courses for under a tenner plus a range of real ales that helped it earn its place in The Good Beer Guide.

If you like sea views, dramatic coves, old ruins and real variety then this pub walk is a must.

When you reach the beach, take some extra time here to enjoy the impressive rock formations of the cliffs here which are being constantly eroded. The jagged cliffs contrast sharply with the flat rock terraces of the beach which have been worn smooth over the millennia and together these make a dramatic sight.

Full details can be downloaded at Horseshoe Inn Walk.

Saturday 25th April - Join the Bluebell Walk to the Kings Arms, Fernhurst, Surrey

If you fancy a pub walk in the Surrey countryside this Saturday, why not join the Bluebell Walk being led by well-known rambler Richard Williamson which starts and finishes at The Kings Arms in Fernhurst.

Although this is a fund raising walk, as this is only a few days away now I have been asked to say all walkers are welcome even without sponsorship as they will be collecting on the day and giving £2 to the charity Canine Partners from each ploughman's sold. So you can count me in and the more the merrier!

The walk is part of the Canine Partners National Bluebell Walk Campaign. It starts from The Kings Arms car park at 10:30am on Saturday 25th April and a map will be provided on the day. Canine Partners enables people with disabilities to enjoy greater independence and a better quality of life through the help of specially trained dogs.

For further information about the walk, please call the Kings Arms on 01428 652005. Visit the www.caninepartners.co.uk or call Malcolm Wells 01730 716011 for further information on the Bluebell Walk Campaign 2009 or Canine Partners.
