Walking at Three Ways House Hotel

Three Ways House Hotel is a great base for walking in the Cotswolds. We can help you to discover this beautiful part of England, whatever your ability or needs. Stay with us and walk independently, with friends, or join us on one of our great Cotswold Walking Weekends. If you have a well behaved dog, then they’re welcome too.

We have a range of local guide books and maps, and as keen walkers ourselves can offer great tips and local advice to really make your walk interesting. We can also recommend the best lunch stops, or supply a made–to–order packed lunch.

If the weather turns you can rest assured that your clothes will be drying out nicely whilst you enjoy a delicious supper and well deserved drink in front of an open fire.

Cotswold Walking Weekends

Our Cotswold Walking Weekends are led by experienced Cotswold Wardens, all of whom have a wealth of local knowledge, which they will readily share with you.

The walks vary in length, taking in some undulating and rough ground, but all are suitable for the moderately fit. Saturday’s walk is usually 11–12 miles, whilst Sunday’s is approximately 8 miles – enabling you to return to the hotel for departure by mid or late afternoon.

Walks from Three Ways House would typically include the beautiful stretch up to Kiftsgate Court and Hidcote Manor, walking on up to Lark Stoke where the views are stunning, through to the Foxcote Estate and back to Mickleton through Hidcote Boyce and down Bakers Hill.

Just to give you an idea of how the weekends work, arrive at your leisure on Friday afternoon. The Pudding Club meeting starts at 7.30 with a drinks reception when your Host will explain the history and rules of the Club. You will then have a choice of three light main courses before the highlight of the evening, a parade of 7 traditional puddings, which might include Spotted Dick, Sussex Pond or Lord Randalls. Relax over coffee and cast your vote for ‘Pudding of the Night’.

After a good night’s sleep you will be ready for breakfast and a chance to start walking off the puddings! Leave the hotel by 9.15, you should be back for 3.30 ish. After a relaxing bath or shower, sit by the fire with a cup of tea or enjoy a pint of beer in Randalls. Dinner will be in our restaurant, then retire to the lounge for coffee or a nightcap.

Sunday’s walk will start from the hotel and will be about 8 miles, arriving back at the hotel by 2.30 ish. If you don’t have to rush home, stay on Sunday night at the special rate of £75 per person, including dinner and breakfast.

Please call reception on 01386 438429 to make your reservation, a £40 deposit per person will be required.

The proof of the Pudding is in the Walking

“Thank you for a brilliant weekend – we all thoroughly enjoyed the superb food, friendly helpful staff, interesting walking guides and the whole relaxed atmosphere of the hotel. We are all looking forward to another weekend, sometime in the future.”
Mrs Leckie

“We have just returned from a Pudding and walking weekend at your hotel and would like to say how much we enjoyed the whole proceeding. We were most impressed with the level of customer service from your staff and attention to detail all round. Our enjoyment of the two walks was greatly enhance by an excellent leader, and the soup and facilities provided at your own residence was an added bonus. You will no doubt be seeing us again with other walking friends.”
Mrs Dawson, Milton Keynes

“May I thank you and all your staff for making us so welcome at The Pudding Club Walking Weekend. We all enjoyed being pampered with good food after some excellent walking and our thanks go to our guides who were very informative and helpful. Of course the good weather was the icing on the pudding!”
