This magnificent Church Of England Parish Church is outstanding as a place of worship and a very friendly staff of clergy and choir . We came here for the service of Nine Lessons and Carols prior to Christmas and having participated in the lovely music and singing were offered refreshment afterwards with no payment required , just a collection during the service. This is the way to start the Christmas Festival .

We've just enjoyed lunch at Unique Cafe - delicious fresh paninis and strong English tea, with individual tea pots for each of us. The 90 minute allocated slot was ideal. The excellent Covid regulations in place made us feel completely at our ease - will definitely return next week. Well done to Fern and her team. Kind regards Theresa
5. Ayscoughfee Hall, Museum & Gardens
Overall Ratings

A family home built in the 1450s, Ayscoughfee Hall stands in 5 acres of Gardens. The Hall tells the story of the people who lived here, as well as local history, and the Gardens are full of interesting features including an ice house and War Memorial designed by Sir Edwin Lutyens. Ayscoughfee Café is open year round and is a great place for drinks and light refreshments.

Shops and gardens! First time here, and found it to be a "two-in-one" visit. Carpark was big, though you had to take a ticket at the barrier on arrival. After shopping - all known names: Sketchers, Next, Home & Garden,Fat Face etc etc there are nice gardens to walk around by designers such as Kim Wilde, & Chris Beardshaw. There is an 'activity walk' map to follow, with some nice water features, and seating areas - all rather nice/unusual for a retail outlet; a nice way to end your day. THE DOWNSIDE : if you dont know (like us), you have to PAY £2 at the ticket machines (by Cafe Nero), then ONLY HAVE 10 mins to get back to your car and exit! Not good if you cannot walk quick (like my mum or unsure where exactly you parked, or even maybe have kids to get into the car). Suggest you do what we did; walked back to car with shopping (and mum), then i went back to pay, before racing back to car to exit . Never before at any outlet have we had to pay!!! Just be aware of that if first time visitors
