Parks & Nature
This is my absolute favourite place to be. Not only is the view stunning, but the wildlife is, too. Take a picnic, or visit the nearby Air Balloon pub for a good meal.

This is a true Farmer's Market - everything sold in the shop has the number of miles travelled on the label. They have some weird and wonderful resident animals such as ostriches and llamas, which you can pet, and they regularly run bouncy castles, Pick Your Own days, funfairs and fetes. The Deli is to die for and they have a small cafe selling local dishes too. There's also a large Harvester next door for huge Sunday lunches - but book first as it gets very busy.

The Wildfowl and Wetland Trust HQ is here. This place is amazing - they have expanded over the years and now have a huge Visitor Centre, guided tours, a toddler playground called Wellyboot Land, a big waterside restaurant, watchtower, secret keeps, a paddleboat lake and absolutely loads of brilliant places to explore. Make sure you go to the Tropical House and take a trip to the top of the Watch Tower. Try to time your visit with feeding time!

Shopping
This charity shop is HUGE and the staff are just wonderful. If bargain hunting is your thing, I would recommend heading just down the road and pay Emmaus a visit!
