    re visiting old haunts

    We found this visitors centre very well stocked and the staff very well informed and helpful. There is so much to see and do in the area you really need more time to do it justice. We will certainly return.

    Woth a visit to the TI

    I called in for information about the town and to collect a town map, response was quick and my questions soon answered. Well worth a visit if you are visiting the town. A nice location in the Town Hall.
