Walk 1 Perkin's Village (2.7 miles)

Difficulty:

Please note:

Wellies are needed after heavy rainfall when fields are likely to be wet.

A stretch through a wood contains large pebbles.

A great walk with no steep hills exploring the rural and peaceful life around Aylesbeare and Perkin's Village using quiet lanes and public footpaths - ideal for a spring or summer's day.

Two centuries ago Perkin's Village was called Parkyns Village, which was named after the 'end' of an 11th century deer park , west of the village.
Sadly, the park no longer exists.
Expect to see freely wandering chickens or turkeys on a farm nearby.
Also, look out for the thatched 'Old Farmhouse' in the same village.
The route offers some extensive views of Exeter & Haldon.
