Loitering in Launde #1 - Holy Moly! Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

thelinnettbirds: Unfortunately it looks like this may finally have gone astray but unfortunately I'm no longer physically able enough to check it out or replace it. It's had a good few years and we're glad it's brought a bit of joy to plenty of folk in that time!

Geocache Description:

You are looking for a small to medium sized clip-lock box. We would recommend parking in Launde Abbey's car park (follow signs to main entrance) as the roads aren't really wide enough to just pull up and there are often a lot of farming vehicles that use that route.  When there has been a lot of rain, there are areas near the cache site that can become waterlogged, so be careful if heading there with children as there are also several ponds in the area.

This cache will take you into the beautiful countryside of Launde, about 20 minutes drive from Rutland Water.  The Launde area is one of our favourite places to go walking and we thought it was fitting that there should be a geocache placed there.  After a long walk we like to retire to nearby Launde Abbey, an Elizabethan manor house built on the site of an Augustinian Priory, to feast on some of the best cakes we've ever come across!

Congratulations to Nightworker33 for being FTF!
