The Riverside Restaurant, West Bay, Dorset

If you are keen for a day trip to the Dorset coast, then why not have lunch at The Riverside in West Bay. It's one of our family favourites. Tamsyn's mother is particularly fond of their sea bass.

They have consistently been on of the South West's best fish restaurants for many years and continue to do so in a very relaxed and unpretentious way.

Stourhead Estate - For walks and lunch!

We're so lucky to have Stourhead on our doorstep. As you can see from these photos, the gardens and grounds are a jewel in the National Trust crown.







A visit to Stourhead makes a great day trip, especially when you settle in after a pipe-opening walk, into a cosy meal or pint of ale at the Spreadeagle Pub.

There's also a fantastic farm shop on the grounds as well. Their cheese, bacon and sausages are particularly good.
