Geocache around Rufford Abbey, Nottinghamshire. Nice flat paths, but the cache can be overgrown in summer.
This cache takes you to Rufford Abbey in Nottinghamshire. Park your car at N53°10.5470' W001°02.2191'. (Free on weekdays, £1.50 at the weekend). There s a café and restaurant in the abbey itself for refreshments, and you may want to take some food for the birds and (very fat) ducks and swans. The craft shop has some very nice pieces for sale, with a ceramic section upstairs. Across the courtyard is a gift shop with the touristy selection you would expect.
The abbey is very popular, and if you have time, visit the ornamental gardens with their sculptures. The cache is off the beaten track though, so you shouldn’t have trouble with muggles.
The cache is a medium size Tupperware box with the usual stuff in it.
