Eating Out
There is a great choice of places to eat and drink in the area whether you are looking for an award winning restaurant or a more traditional pub. We don't provide evening meals so we have put together a few local suggestions (with the help of some of our guests) to help you plan your visit.
We strongly recommend that you book your evening meal before you arrive to avoid disappointment as popular pubs and restaurants can become booked up very quickly.
