πŸ‘πŸ‘ Lovely little cafe been today for the 2nd time, tried food for the first time, food good, worth a visit if in the area, staff nice too. My only criticism is, great that you hoover the floor to keep tidy but when tables cleared, the tables were not wiped over!

Bird watching area
πŸ‘πŸ‘ Really enjoyed the experience. Dan was so knowledgeable and passionate about the birds and there is an obvious bond between him and them. It is basic in terms of facilities (no loos after you've dropped the car off) but he did offer tea and coffee in the break. We booked via an 'experience' website...

πŸ‘πŸ‘ Lots of choice for walks in the countryside, you can hire bikes for the whole family there too. The walks we tried were all quite flat so easy even for me. They have a kiosk there that serves some food and drinks (some nice flavours of ice cream too) but for more substantial fare head to the restau...

Fish and chips takeaway
🫀 We are regular customers, usually visiting once every six weeks or so. I know the management has now changed hands. We visited tonight and were very disappointed by the food quality. The chips were undercooked and soggy, the fishcakes weren't very crisp either. The minced beef pie had been too long...

After entering the establishment I was immediately transported back to the fellow ship of the ring when after meeting the landlord . But joking apart this pub being run by a vertically challenged ma...
