Polo, Picnic & A Pint at Langham Brewery

Date: 25 May 2024

A linear 7 mile walk across the Cowdray estate combining all the ingredients that make a perfect summer’s day in the Western Weald (….a 4th ‘P’ for precipitation is clearly banned from the list!).

Before we set off towards Midhurst you might want to take the opportunity to purchase a can of delicious Langham beer for your picnic – it’s not too heavy, easy to carry and goes down well whilst watching polo. Lesley, the friendly face of Langham Brewery, recommends either the German Pils Lager Lodsteiner (4.2) or Session IPA (3.8) as the perfect beers to accompany our walk.

The walk weaves its way from Lodsworth to Midhurst south of the river Rother via Cowdray’s polo grounds at Ambersham and Easebourne. Depending on the programme of play (there are a number of scheduled games/tournaments that weekend), there will hopefully be an opportunity to watch a chukka or two at Ambersham along the way. Once we arrive in Midhurst we can enjoy a leisurely picnic lunch beside either the Lawns or River pitches, before walking the short distance to Midhurst bus station and catching the bus back to the brewery. From where it drops us it is then a short 10/15 minute walk back to Langhams……where you can end the day with a pint of whatever draught beer you fancy.

Start 10.00 (Finish around 15.30/16.00)
Please note the bus fare will be £2 per person (unless you have a bus pass).
