Tuck into freshly grilled burgers, toast extra-large marshmallows at our marshmallow stand, and at Bunny Scoops treat yourself to homemade fruit crumble served with delicious ice cream or custard. You can also enjoy fantastic food and freshly baked bread from our recently opened Hop Bakehouse, while browsing a carefully chosen selection of Christmas gifts and festive treats to take home.
