We had the best evening on Halloween at our event: Ghost stories at the lake with .

You told us that you did too: "What a truly fantastic event! Jo Carnegie was a truly great engaging ghost story teller and it was extra special since they were all related to the local area. Fab fresh pies and other goodies as well as the usual fantastic The Wandering Kitchen team. Please can we have another ghost stories event next year?"

We would love to do more speaker events in 2027. What would you like to see/hear?

New event alert!!

It's the most wonderful time of the year... to get crafty and slightly tipsy!

Join Fiona from Arty Paint party for a wreath-making evening that'll get you in the Christmas spirit faster than Mariah Carey on repeat. Bring your friends, bring your family, bring that competitive crafting A-game!

Our café will be decked out in all its festive finery, complete with our famous 6ft tree, twinkling lights, and a fire that'll make you feel like you're in a Hallmark movie (although, we make no promises that Jude Law will come knocking on the door).

Don't worry, we've got the essentials covered: materials, guidance, and snacks (sausage rolls and cakes!) - all you need to bring is your festive cheer! Oh, and did we mention the bar will be open, serving up Bailey's hot chocolates, cold beers, and our signature Christmas cocktails?

Grab your tickets and let's get this wreath party started!

The importance of the coffee shop! Not just the WK, but to all coffee shops! Beyond the commercial side of the coffee shop, is a 'third space', a space outside the home that are important to people, and important to society.

A meeting space, a place to chat, a social leveller, a place to take a breath and a place to take the kids to get out of the house!

We love being that space to you all!! We can't fix the world but sometimes you just need a cuppa and a cake!!!☕️🍰

Half term we are ready for you!!!

😋 Kids menu and hot chocs!!
♟️ Games, books, toys & colouring
🍂 2.5km walk around the lake with animal hunt

There is an additional charge for the lake walk and animal hunt of £3 per person or £5 for a family pass of up to 4 people.

We get asked a lot why we charge for the lake walk, because it is private land and therefore it costs us to upkeep it and costs to keep the animal trail up to date. If you buy a family pass and are 4 people this is £1.25 per person, which we feel is competitive with other private land sites and we do not charge for parking. The price you pay keeps the walk open, cleared and mowed.
