Such raw countryside so close to Winchester centre. Easy walking distance; about fifteen minutes.
An expansive area, encompassing the chalk-based river Itchen alive with trout. And a Canada Goose.
Infinite views, opening the heart to calmness and serenity.
Scent of grass, rushes and sound of birdlife lift the soul as if elevating to a different dimension of life.
At the same instant a feeling of vibrancy and energy. A desire to walk around myriad pathways, with views opening a gateway to the beauty of Nature. Unforgettable.
