Good spot for lunch or a bit of cake in a very sweet courtyard cafe, served out of a caravan on a National Trust Site. There is some cover too under a farm building if you need shelter from the rain. There's also a campsite within the grounds of the farm and a donkey wheel which which was used to draw water from the well. Apparently the donkeys were trained to walk in 12 minute cycles, changing direction as each time slot passed. I'm not sure I believe it.
