Walking to The Royal Oak

Staying at Botswicky offers a variety of different walking, hiking and cycling opportunities; being situated in the countryside and close to The Ridgeway means with some decent shoes or boots sights such as the Uffington White Horse are within easy reach.

Very close to the site is our Partner’s Pub: The Royal Oak (menu here)

Follow the route from the top left hand corner, along the way-marked fields, pony paddocks and over chalk streams until you reach the church in Bishopstone.

Here’s Vidar from Nordic Glamping walking the route successfully to the pub; it takes around 20 minutes from Botswicky. A torch is useful for the return walk from the pub.

The Royal Oak is open for food and drinks 7 days a week and always full of friendly faces enjoying delicious food in the beautiful gardens. It is a popular pub so if you’d like to eat there on busy days or weekends it is always good to book a table ahead of time (mention you are staying on the glamping site and the patrons will do their very best to sort you out a table).

On summer weekends there is often live music and sometimes talks. Take a look at the pub website or more on Helen’s passions and projects here.
