Food and Drink
Here are the places Maria and I visit on a regular basis. The surrounding area is full of amazing traditional and artisanal places to go. We hope you enjoy them as much as we do.
For a healthy light bite there's no place better. We like the sausage rolls, they also have the most amazing condiments at the back of the shop on offer if you eat in so make the most of those ;)
