Such a lovely place with lovely people and the staff are working their hardest during covid-19 to keep everyone safe and try to get everyone to stick to the rules and they are doing such a wonderful job during this awful time. Everything is under shelter and it's perfect for a stunning day to sit in the beer garden.
