The half marathon starts from Hackwood Road adjacent to the War Memorial Park in Basingstoke and is a road race starting in the town, but with most of the route on traffic free minor roads through undulating countryside. In 2019 the race will be run in the usual direction (as in 2011-17), and will take place in parallel to a new 10k race.

The race course heads out of town on closed roads towards the village of Cliddesden, you will pass the Jolly Farmer pub, then turn left by the village pond to head up towards Cliddesden School. You enter the village of Ellisfield at mile 4, then turn left towards the church, then right down College Lane with a lovely gentle downhill to mile 6. Turn right and right again before you climb back up past The Fox Inn returning to Ellisfield, then take a left towards Farleigh Wallop. Between miles 8 and 9 there is the legendary ‘Big Dipper’ as affectionately named by local runners, (actually its proper name is ‘Bedlam Bottom’) where the road drops by 100 feet then regains it almost immediately. Then follow the tree-lined Avenue to mile 9, and from here it is more or less downhill to the finish. Once you reach the crossroads you will turn right downhill with some fabulous views across the countryside with Basingstoke in the distance. Back through Cliddesden and towards town, taking a right by the Holiday Inn to return to the race village in War Memorial Park with the last 130m on grass in the park.

The 10k race starts from Hackwood Road, just outside the War Memorial Park, following the route of the half marathon along closed roads to the village of Cliddesden. Then there is a hill out of the village for about three quarters of a mile before the turn point just before the ‘Farleigh Wallop’ sign, where you retrace your steps downhill back to the village and follow the same route to the finish in War Memorial Park.

Owner Bernard Genge

After falling in love with this old water-powered flour mill (molino viejo) near Serón in rural Almería, I bought it in 2003. As someone who is obsessed with health and fitness, it was the realisation of a dream:

Situated at the foothold of the Sierra de los Filabres mountain range it is accommodation for groups who want adventure. With the mill oozing character and in a secluded spot with spectacular scenery all around, securing your own adventure is a must, whether you seek that yourself or use our local English guide to help you.

The mill has 5 bedrooms (we have additional accommodation nearby) with twin beds (doubles can be supplied on request), an inside and outside lounge area, dining area, sun terraces and away from the noise, hustle and bustle of regular life! Come to us if you are looking for accommodation in a relaxed atmosphere and countryside waiting to be explored on foot, bike or vehicle, but not if you are looking for the crowded costa resorts.

We have mountain bikes you can hire at minimal cost, personal friends nearby who have additional apartment accommodation and their own swimming pool and Jacuzzi so after a day of exertion and fun you could relax by their pool or go back to the Mill to one of the outside ‘chill out’ areas! 

Situated at the foothold of the Sierra de Los Filabres mountain range and it is accommodation for groups who want adventure. 

With the mill oozing character and in a secluded spot with spectacular scenery all around, securing your own adventure is a must. 

The mill has 6 bedrooms, an inside and outside lounge area, dining area, sun terraces, and away from the noise, hustle and bustle of regular life! 

Come to us if you are looking for accommodation in a relaxed atmosphere and countryside waiting to be explored on foot, bike or vehicle, but not if you are looking for the crowded costa resorts! 

We have mountain bikes you can use, terrace patio areas for relaxing, an indoor studio for group work, your own private swimming pool and many quiet areas suitable for time alone and personal reflection.

1) Activity BreaksThe rural location of the Old Spanish Mill in the foothills of Los Filabres mountain range makes this the perfect place for an activity break, whether that is running, cycling (we have eight mountain bikes), triathlon training, hiking or kayaking.

2) Mini GroupsWhile the property lends itself to larger groups, if we have availability outside of these exclusive whole property bookings, we are more than happy to cater for people who would like a “mini break.” If you desire a few days away from the hustle and bustle of life and to relax in the peaceful surroundings of this remote, rural location in the foothills of Los Filabres mountain range or to explore the nearby countryside and beyond into Andalusia with its historic towns, cities, and places of interest,

3) Corporate Events Whether you want a facilitated strategy development session, focused leadership or management development, or just time away to gain a renewed focus for your organisation, the Old Spanish Mill is an ideal venue. Set in peaceful, rural surroundings in the foothills of Los Filabres mountain range, with few distractions, you will be able to concentrate on your aims and forge deeper connections to your colleagues. 

We have a studio for group work although many groups prefer using one of the outside patio areas.

After your work session, you could have a swim in our pool, relax on a sun lounger or even have a relaxing massage on our massage couch. 

For the more active, you could take a hike, go for a run or ride on one of our eight mountain bikes.

 Prices for corporate events will depend upon what you require, the number of people attending and whether you would like our professional, independent facilitator/trainer, who has been delivering corporate training and development for 20 years.

Awaiting new details and race date:

 Every runner will need to run the 4.2 mile route by 1100 and then at 11 you'll need to do the same by 12 and it will go on like this as long as you can. 

It will start at the gym on the outskirts of the stunning town of Seron in the Almeria region of Andalucia. Food will be available (snacks in the afternoon, pasta/soup in the evening and porridge on the Sunday morning) for all runners. 

There will be cheap accommodation in the area and it could be turned into a wonderful holiday destination as well. BBQ on the Friday night, but the big question is, 'Will you be the last person standing'
