What travelers are saying

... in a beautiful area next to and surrounded by a crystal clear river.There is a stone mason, a wood turner, a furnishing company, a fancy glass producer and a metal worker.There is also a working flour mill.

Great food, excellent location, great staff, interesting mill, cool gift shop and little artisan rooms.

The servings of quiche, homity pie and 3 bean chilli were very generous and very tasty but the stars were the 6 or more amazing salads, couscous, rice, bean, green, carrot, quinoa, beetroot, etc, etc different com...

Always great

We have been coming here for many years and have never, ever had less than a thoroughly enjoyable meal or coffee break. The cake, home made, is excellent, with some standards (favourites, undoubtedly) and some newer recipes. Always a treat but often hard to chose!...More

Nice surprise.

Have passed this place by many times and never called. Lots to see. A couple of bits closed due to restoration. For the people who like machinery it’s a must. Places to picnic by the water. Will go again and leave more time.

Visit the shop there!

So glad we stopped here at the shop. Lovely and tempting selection of cards, beautiful and very unusual gifts. It's an Aladdin's cave of treasures!

Lovely vegetarian cafe in beautiful setting.

The food here is delicious and they do the best salad I have had anywhere! However I dislike the "polite" notice that states you must order and pay for your food before sitting at a table. I am not prepared to pay £20 to £30...More

Hello, Craft centre owner here. Thank you for your good review, even though your experience was a little marred. All I can say is that when we set up the café over 30 years ago we did it to embrace the 'French way' of shared...More

Lovely food but speed of till service and table clearance poor
