Sympathetically restored and re-fashioned historic building, fabulous water-side setting, artistic hub, great cakes, coffee and lunches, friendly and informal (one of the waiters helped my hubby change a flat car wheel) and intimate gigs with some great bands. Larger performance space is planned.

Good to find a dog friendly cafe/ restaurant that serves nice home cooked food and good cakes. Friendly staff within easy access of the Humber bank for those lovely Sunday morning walks.

Well worth a visit. Small but good collection of porcelain and a little archaeology. There is an axe from Langdale which must have traded through Lincolnshire 6000 years ago, possibly for export to the continent. A gorgeous panelled room. Part of a George Stubbs trail as his sponsors, the Nelthorpes lived here. The Nelthorpe portraits by Stubbs are now in Scawby. H lived and studied horses at nearby Horkstow.
