This is now the place to be seen! Sit on the terrace and drink endless cappuccinos until someone notices you or you just fly back home. Spectacular soups, tasty toasties, scrumptious salads and brilliant brownies are some of our alliterations on offer. The focaccias are good too. Check out the blackboard for today's special dish. Everything on our menu is organic, vegetarian and tastes delicious.

Day I Found It

On one of the lovely sunny days this summer, we walked through Falkland amid masses of wonderful flowers in hanging baskets, boxes and carts! The amazing Palace is evocative of our gracious history, not just battles and mayhem. A short walk out of the village on an organic farm, the Pillars of Hercules is a delightful cafe - ecologically superior. A local policeman lent his mountain bike on a tree and joined us for lunch. Truly a memorable day.
