Staunton Harold Estate. Plenty of space in car park (free on weekdays). LE65 1RU, W3W decent.spectacle.ramp
 
The route will set off from The Staunton Harold Car Park (walkers can Google this title if unsure where it is), then head across to Worthington, then across fields (not too muddy, either!) following part of the Ivanhoe Way, crossing the B587, down to the southern end of SH Reservoir, through Dimminsdale and back to the garden centre, probably via Heath End .Approx 6.5 miles. Usual mix of stiles and gates, none too difficult and total ascent probably no more than 100metres.
No pub, but decent cafes available at both SH Garden Centre and the Ferrers Centre at end of the walk (toilets here too, tho not sure if they'll be open at start of the walk).
For those unfamiliar with the Staunton Harold Estate, vehicle entrance is close to the B587 junction at Lount. W3W spokes.tribe.willpower or OS grid ref SK 390199
Then proceed approx 1.5km down this single-track drive to the car park.   SK377208
