This was our second visit to the site, the member of staff was fantastic, was so enthusiastic and nothing was to much trouble, she was full of information and very passionate about the abbey, its history & surrounding area, this was worth our visit alone. It was very peaceful even with the restoration work that is taking place, we look forward to visiting again
