We would recommend a lazy afternoon wandering around the narrow streets and not just the main shopping streets. There are other delights off the beaten track with some amazing architecture and character. The shops are renowned for their individuality and quirkiness. We recommended grabbing a coffee and a cake from Judge's bakery and sitting in the memorial garden opposite or the church garden.

Gem of a restaurant that is unpretentious. Middle eastern cuisine - think Humus and beautifully baked pittas, olives and more. An added bonus is you can take your own booze and they charge a modest corkage per person and not by the bottle. They do a fantastic brunch. You will have to book for the evening and it is only open toward the end of the week and on weekends. They are dog friendly too.

One of our all-time favourites. Ten-minute walk away from the house down the pathways. In Queens Road just up from Morrisons Supermarket. A quirky pub that brews its own craft ales and has a decent selection of wines and craft gins, but its real gem is its selection of wood-fired pizzas. Relaxing style - don't expect knives and forks, you eat your pizza out of the box with a kitchen paper roll to mop up - however you will not be disappointed!
