Visiting The Malthouse & Want to Walk?

Many of our B&B guests are surprised to find that Alton (the village we're located in) is such a beautiful rural village. If your coming to stay with us at The Malthouse B&B and like walking don't forget to consider bringing your walking boots or just a pair of old training shoes with you!

Alton is a lovely village to stroll around but for the more adventurous there are plenty of walks nearby in fabulous countryside. We came across a four mile long walk called Furnace Forest recently on the Internet. There is a leaflet produced by our local council Staffordshire Moorland District Council that gives a map and directions for the walk. See www.staffsmoorlands.gov.uk/downloads/Furnace_Forest_SMDC_2_.pdf to view the Furnace Forest walk. The walk starts and finishes at the Ramblers Reteat(cafe/restaurant) in Dimmingdale just 1 mile from The Malthouse. You might like to stop at the Ramblers Retreat for tea & cake or a meal! Perhaps you should eat before you start walking so that you can walk off all the calories!

Why not print the walk out and bring it with you when you come to stay with us!
