“Walk, Talk, Eat”
Explore our countryside with the Village Walking Group. We are a group of about 18 people with varying walking ability. Our walks are typically 4-5 miles long, ending up with a pub lunch. Its a great way to meet people, while getting some exercise, seeing our nearby country and investigating nearby pubs. We walk every month except August.
NB: this group is currently not meeting (early 2022)
The Bledington Music Festival is an annual music event which takes place over three summer evenings in early June in beautiful Bledington. We play host to top class performers from all over the world.
