Such a beautifully peaceful stone circle. Kind of easy to find. Just off the A30, take the public footpath up as far as the sign saying "no vehicles beyond this point". This track way is driveable and at the sign there is a a shallow layby for parking. From there, on foot, follow the pathway up to the farm and follow it round to the right. You get to a fork in the pathway marked with a post to the stone circle. Take the pathway in your right and just keep following it to the gate and into the circle. We visited at the end of July and the pathway was almost dry but there were a few soft, muddy patches so good footwear would be recommended in wetter conditions (we all had regular trainers on and were fine) I can't explain how peaceful this stone circle is. Its surrounded by gorse and lots of wild flowers around. Its quite a small circle but the stones feel powerful. Its definitely worth the walk which is probably no more than 15mins from where you leave the car. We had the circle to ourselves and I really didn't want to leave. Fabulous energy and I will hopefully return 🙏

Accessed from the A30 there's a small layby right next to the start of the pathway, which is marked with a wooden signpost. The path leads to the site but it's a bit overgrown so I'd recommend wearing trousers. Follow the path until you reach a sealed gate next to a large fallen log. There's an overgrown path to the left of the gate that leads to a stone style. When you climb up the style the stone circle is infront of you. It's a lovely, calm space, that shows signs of still being used, with offerings placed under the centre stone. Very photogenic. With the overgrown path and climb to get over the stone style it isn't accessible from the A30 for those with mobility issues.

Went on a quiet day and had the place to myself. It was an interesting experience, standing there on a very windy day listening to the gust. The place is easy to find with Google maps. About 5 minutes walk along a narrow pathway from the point you see the sign (see pic). I think there is another walking route as I saw a couple entering from another path as I was leaving, but Google maps didn't show that. There isn't a proper parking space near the sign. The driving path is narrow, bumpy and not tarmacked. I parked my car a bit further down the road in a lay-by and walked.
