A Walk from The Stag at Offchurch

A Walk from Newbold Comyn Leisure Centre led by Angus Mills
This walk starts from the Newbold Comyn Arms car park, Leamington Spa, CV32 4EW and is approx. 9 miles distance.
With the Leisure Centre on your right and the pub car park on your left continue down the tarmac road into the park, passing adventure play areas on your right and a further car part on your left. Continue ahead until reaching a building. Take the footpath on the right (in front of the building) which crosses the River Leam before reaching the A425. Turn left here taking the footpath along the road and at a convenient point cross the road and continue down the footpath looking for a short flight of steps on the right which leads to the canal. Turn left down the canal passing under two canal bridges. Upon passing under the second bridge an old brick railway bridge comes into view; pass under the railway bridge and immediately turn left walking up a slope and on to the disused railway track (Cycle Route 41 – The Greenway).
Walk from Newbold Comyn Arms, Leamington Spa
A walk of around 8 miles in rolling Warwickshire countryside starting and ending at The Newbold Comyn Arms, Newbold Terrace East, Leamington Spa, CV32 4EU
From the pub car park we will walk east down Newbold Terrace East until we arrive at a play park on the right and a couple of car parks opposite. We head left through the car parks joining a tree lined footpath which is a continuation of Greenwood Court and which runs alongside the Golf Course. We turn right (East) along this path until we pick up signs for the Millennium Way on our left. Turning left we cross the Golf course heading broadly North along the Millennium Way towards Cubbington. Contrary to the OS Map the route across the Golf Course is at 90 degrees to the path that we are leaving and does not go diagonally to the right: there is no signage at this point but it appears again after crossing the Golf Course and is good from this point. We follow the Millennium Way passing Redhouse Farm before we skirt around a wooded area ('The Runghills') and on towards Glebe Farm. Just before Glebe Farm the path ahead starts to climb and there is a gate on the right which is easy to miss. We don’t climb the slope and instead pass through the metal gate on the right, taking the path that continues in the same direction passing directly through Glebe Farm and continuing North towards Cubbington ...
