Food Scene
We have a number of good places to eat, some on the doorstep others you will need to drive to, but well worthwhile.
I don't think you will have experienced anything like this. Won't give away the secrets, however well worth a coffee and lovely cakes. A sneaky cocktail or carafe of wine with some small plates of interesting nibbles.
