Raith Woods

After all the recent frost we got a warmer and dry day to go for our walk in Raith Woods. We last did this walk in October 2013 and as the nights are drawing in with less daylight we need to consider local walks. This fitted the bill perfectly

The woods were lovely with the fallen leaves, if slightly muddy in parts. We had some lovely views over the fields surrounding the woods and met a few other intrepid explores either out for a walk like us or doing the dog walk

The picture taken was at the top of the drive of Raith House and as we had just had a sweetie stop we were all busy sooking our sweeties, hence the look on some faces!

The walk was roughly 4.5 miles and of course we were ready for our coffee stole which was at the Dean Park Hotel. Plenty of scones and refills of coffee and tea will ensure that we will return

As this was our last walk of 2016 all good wishes for a very happy Christmas and a new year filled with peace and health to all our friends and families
