It's run on a bit of a shoestring. There is one unisex toilet, but it is surprisingly spacious and clean.
We took the longest route, and it wasn't very challenging.
It was a busy day, which meant they ran out of a lot of items, leading to an eclectic choice for me. Apple crumble with strawberry ice-cream and a banana and chocolate milk shake. It was all good, though.
There was a very talented busker making an out of tune guitar sound good.
I don't expect the weather to stay as nice for the rest of the summer.
Today it was factor 50. It might be raincoats before I get back.

Great little café. Less than a minute walk from the carpark. Toilet waste spotless. Lots of seating and more than enough parking.
What hidden gem! I absolutely loved it, such a friendly place, the quirky, earthy atmosphere, hoslitality, dog friendly, it was so beautiful seeing so many couples, families out with their dogs enjoying the delicious coffees, protein balls, cakes, pizzas etc with their dogs beside them, treats and water bowls complimentary to all the friendly canines!
Sounds amazing, sunday evenings with the addition of buskers welcome to perform! I will def be going back! Well done on such a unique experience and fabulous walk through the forest!
