I love it that this is here, great place to have a nice coffee and sit in peace away from cars and the hustle and bustle. They have an excellent range of cakes, including a vegan option. It must be noted that this place is CASH ONLY so bare that in mind and turn up with real money and there's a toilet which is very convenient. Highly recommended.

Very muddy walk. We did the 7.5 mile walk and enjoyed the views from the toposcope. I thought I had read that there were sculptures on the walk but didn't find any, which was disappointing. Enjoyed a toasted sandwich in the cafe who will only accept cash.

Delightful place, food on offer is fairly basic, a little pricey but honest enough. Homemade sausage rolls would be so much better if made with proper sausage meat instead of bargain sausages. But it will is what it is. Although hot and busy when we visited, the girls behind the counter were still smiling and very polite. Credit to them. Quite a broad cross-section of society but everyone friendly and personable.
