Geocache Description:

Congrats solti & dreeder75 - joint FTF!

Part of a series - see myAndreas Loops Bonus Cache for details.


This cache falls within two loops. Please go to the appropriate section relevant to the order in which you are seeking this cache.

Anna's Lane Loop No1

This loop is a short country walk/cycle, done in around an hour or so, through some quiet rural roads and footpaths. It can either be walked or cycled. I would recommend parking at the waypoint below, then you should make your way across the playing fields, out onto the main Andreas road. Turn right along this road, then at the roundabout go left, out towards the sea. After a short period, you will see a footpath sign on your left - the cache is just up here.

My maternal ancestors came from Andreas, and my great-aunt has always called this path 'Anna's Lane'. So, regardless of whoever may live here now, this loop is, and forever will be, Anna's!

Thurot Cottage Loop No4

From no3, keep to the Andreas road (also known as the Burma road), passing one footpath to your right, then encountering another. It's up this footpath where you need to search. There are usually a great number of bunnies running around along here - lets hope they haven't nibbled the cache!

This is the last cache in the Thurot Cottage Loop - to return to the playing fields it is a simple matter of returning to the road and continuing along the way you were headed, which would take you back to the Andreas roundabout. You could, however, continue down this footpath, and in doing so would also complete my Anna's Lane Loop, at the additional cost of around 45 minutes walking/20 mins cycling.

Please note: This cache has already been interfered with by muggles - please replace cache very well. Replaced Contents: Orange highlighter, bouncy ball, toy snake, plastic fencing and logbook+pencil. The cache is a medium snap-lock box with some duct tape around it and an 'official geocache' sticker (to ward off muggles)..
