If it's miles of hills, I'll be waiting with star at the bottom
I don't mind hills when I'm walking by myself, but I'm not fit enough to do hills and talk at the same time Most of the walks suggested by me are fairly flat

It's time someone came to South Devon for a holiday

Are there many deer there - if so it might not be suitable for some dogs.
I dont mind where we go

I'm starting to favour Blackness.
The path through the woods is quite wide making it easier for people to walk together and the trees are fairly well spaced so that the dogs don't have to stay on the path. Also, the few times I've been, you do meet a few people, but nowhere near as many as the other walks.
There's a small burn in an open area for the dogs to drink/play from (and if the weather is nice for us to sit and sunbathe for awhile
).Its not a circular walk so you have to turn back on yourself at some point, but that also means that we can make it as long or as short as we like.
If only someone would buy and open the pub in the village before 11th July, it would be absolutely perfect
