Food scene
A wonderful location for lunch or a drink in the stone walled garden in the picturesque historic Mells village. The gardens are beautiful and you can find your favourite table tucked away among the scented flowers. There is a great choice of garden plants for sale too. Very popular place among locals who have even been known to visit twice in one day!

Explore over one thousand years of history in one of England's greatest cathedrals. I recommend booking a tour of the exterior including peaceful gardens and Vicars Close claimed to be the oldest purely residential street in Europe and is still home to the cathedral's vicars to this day.
