Sightseeing
You can't avoid it! The picturesque Castle is a private home and not open to the public - but the gardens are AND there is an Art Gallery attached. I love the vegetable area - it caters for the castle inhabitants and, if you're lucky you'll get to chat to a gardener. Art works spill over from the gallery into the gardens.
Also - secret spot - the "green road" that starts in the car park is great for dog-walks.

Parks & Nature
Interesting shortish walk - about 2 km but you can make it longer and linger as you ponder mankind's follies. Good for dog walking.
