Surprisingly, considering the weather forecasts, we had a lovely week exploring the area. Our main reason for the visit was to attend a gig at the Palace Theatre and we were grateful that it was within walking distance. Cherry Lodge was a lovely place to stay but I did end up having to wash most of the glassware before use as it didnât look to have seen soap and water for some time. Beyond that small niggle, I think weâd look to visit again
