Disclaimer: since there was no comfortable hike in today's hiking area, I have recorded hike number 4 from the Rother hiking guide here, plus an additional detour at the western end... I absolutely had to climb a hill that would be called a munro in Scotland - a hill of > 1000 feet.

After the first mile or so of straight up-hill it becomes a real narrow coast path, so care needs to be taken for another 1.35 miles. It then gets wider and safer for sure. A real stunning route if you don't mind heights LOL.
