I stumbled upon this café through Streetlife. This is therefore
also a good recommendation for Streetlife as a really useful piece of social media.
It puts you in touch with your neighbours and stops some of the isolation.
This
café is actually a ten minute drive from where I live.
I visited on a Friday afternoon. The knitting club, Knit and
Natter, was in full swing. There was much laughter, lots of cups of tea and some
brightly coloured woollen items emerging.
I paid just £2.00 for a decent mug of tea and a wonderful
slice of something very chocolaty.
There is most certainly plenty of Creative Café Project
activity going on here. There is art work on the walls, artisan cards for sale
and news of a reading group. The owner is looking to extend activities.
It helps if you like horses as you have to walk up through
the stables to get to the café. That just adds to the atmosphere as far as I’m concerned.
It can be a little draughty in the café as the door opens and shuts frequently
as riders wait for lessons to start or for parents to collect them. However, it’s
all part of the fun.
