Sunday - Dunkery Beacon (and Great Rowbarrow)
Sunday's shorter, 10 mile walk took us from the house through forest and over moorland to Dunkery Beacon and returned on a meandering path alongside the river. The longer 11.5 mile walk crossed Exmoor to Great Rowbarrow before returning through woods to Holnicote House.
