You can hire boats and take a trip round the picturesque six thousand acre Mere to see the islands and inlets all named by J M Barrie the author of Peter Pan where you will see statues of Wendy and Peter Pan. Every August a regatta is held on the Mere which culminates in a torchlit parade of boats and fireworks.

A perfect location with really comfortable accomodation. The welcome basket was outstanding. It was perfect accomodation for my 93 year old father who has some mobility difficulties and allowed us all to spend time together.
