Can get a little busy with pedestrians and other cyclists, but the views across the River Dee Estuary and the birdlife are great.

Main photo shows The Beest, not Peck!

Entrance fee is £5 per person. Allow yourself some time, as the cathedral is very large and complex. Its cloister and courtyard are very beautiful. Inside the church, there was a replica made of Lego bricks, illuminated, and even a detailed interior.

There are many choices to be made here . It's a pleasant spot to drop onto the Shropshire Union Canal Towpath to go to either Chester or Ellesmere Port Basin & the National Waterways Museum. Or continue up the hill to Chester Zoo . In the opposite direction is either Chorlton up the badly resurfaced Chorlton Lane on the left (from the bridge) or straight on (again in the opposite direction to the Zoo) to Crowton & Stoak. Stoak has the Bunbury Arms at its heart, well worth stopping for a bite to eat😋👍

Would recommend heading from Wales into England at sunset. Riding into the setting sun in such a tranquil spot

Nice spot for a quiet rest as I cycle the country lanes into and out of Chester.

Outside seating area and pot of tea £3.65

"An Inn called the "Beer House" was shown here on a map of 1686, though its origin was probably much earlier. At times it was also known as the Ferry House, and the Pengwern Arms, before it was demolished around 1885, following severe storm damage a few years earlier. The present structure (built in 1926) began as the Boathouse Café at a time when the nearby baths were flourishing.  It is now a pub/restaurant, having been progressively modified and enlarged over the years; the modern conservatory dining area enables patrons to watch the wildlife on the marshes while they enjoy their meals in comfort."
