Parks & Nature
1 mile from cottage is the entrance to park proper i.e within the cattle grid. Walk for many miles. Suggest drive 5 mins to Godshill and park rather than the relatively uninteresting walk from cottage (plus horrible hill). Bike Hire from Sandy Balls Holiday Centre.

Every Wednesday. Usual range of food and non-food items. pretty good parking although busy in Summer months. I recommend the cafe in the High Street called Framptons for coffee or lunch.
