IT

lovely rural location just outside of Coventry.
CoombeAbbeyCountryPark
The Cistercian
abbey adjacent to the park dates back to 1150. In the early 17th
century the abbey and its surrounding lands were purchased by the
Craven family who owned it for the next 300 years. In the 1960s the
park was opened to the general public and now the old abbey has
been transformed into a hotel.
Parking is now £3.30 for all day.

There is a
visitor’s centre which has a restaurant and various little
shops; there is also a picnic and BBQ area with other picnic tables
around the park. If waterfowl are your thing, there's a huge lake,
with a hide and Heronry.
Two play areas
are available for Children so there is plenty to do.
The cache itself is a small sized food
container which is air and waterproof.
