Now, we’re not suggesting that you travel hundreds of miles to this spot, but if you happen to be visiting the Amphitheatre already then follow these steps to find it:
- Starting at the Cotswold Avenue gate, follow the main path down the hill then turn right into the Amphitheatre.
- Walk across the Amphitheatre and out the other side – you’ll see an information board.
- Turn right and head down a slope.
