Opens at 9:30, we had a lovely slap up breakfast before our 48km ride. We had a very friendly service and we regretted not trying all the cakes on the counter... A must visit for all times of the day.

If you need supplies this little shop is the place to go in Eskdale. This place has saved me a number of times when I was running short on snacks or water!
