The Daneway is a hiker-friendly establishment complete with a campsite. The campsite’s facilities include washrooms, showers and toilets and is open all year round.

As well as traditional pub fare and a lovely beer garden, there's also the Muddy Boots Cafe, which serves a range of baguettes and sandwiches, sausage rolls and fresh coffee.

St Luke's Church, Frampton Mansell

Highlight • Settlement

Frampton Mansell is a pretty village in the Cotswold's AONB. It is beautifully located to the south of the Cotswold escarpment on the banks of the River Fromel. It’s a marvellous base for exploring the surrounding countryside, with plenty of woodland and riverside trails and footpaths into the rolling hills to the north.

Prominent in the village is the Grade II-listed St Luke's Church, which boasts a set of five original stained glass windows. You can seek accommodation at Well Farm Bed and Breakfast and at the Crown Inn. The latter serves superb pub grub.

Frome Valley Lane

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

A charming lane through the Frome Valley at Chalford. It is a little rough in places but nothing too horrendous... I did it on a carbon road bike. There are plenty of options at either end. I came down from Frampton Mansell, which looks like a good climb and went up Coppice Hill, which was a bit of a brute!
