Works are currently taking place in the kitchen, with its owners thanking staff and customers for their support.

"A big thanks to W.Black carpets and flooring for the amazing job we can’t recommend them enough.

"We want to thank everyone from the bottom of our hearts for their continued support and custom over this season.

"If it wasn’t for you we wouldn’t be able to do what we do. We survived the air show which was our busiest day on record and we hope to see everyone again at the next one

"Now it’s time to go on our holidays and we will be back after our well deserved three weeks off."
