Small visitors centre and NT cafe with lovely baked goods and hot and cold sandwiches and drinks. Lovely walks around the area and the brook. We came with two children aged 3 and 5 and the shorter walk was ok for them, and we bought wellies (and a change of clothes!) so they could enjoy splashing in the shallower parts of the brook!
