Starting at the Cremyll Ferry landing stage, this gentle circular walk ambles alongside Plymouth sound with views out to Drake's Island and beyond. Go through the formal gardens and then gently climbing up in front of the house before returning down the Avenue. The surface for the most part is sealed and smooth with one stretch of short grass to navigate. There is one 100 metre uphill section with gradients of around 1:20. There are plenty of opportunities to stop and sit and enjoy the scenery. Finish with a diversion down to Mashfords, a local shipyard or for refreshments in the Edgcumbe Arms. This walk is suitable for trampers, wheelchairs, pushchairs and those who are at least moderately fit and able!
