Good beer at the Little Rose Inn but so-so food: edible but not somewhere you would want to go out of your way to experience. Apart from two men sat at the bar, who disappeared soon after we arrived, we were the only customers. On the plus side we did get the garden to ourselves. Having stayed together more or less up to lunchtime the group fragmented somewhat in the afternoon. Most of us came together again at the Orchard Café, but it was very busy and one look at the queue persuaded us to give it a miss, which is a shame. After a short, unplanned detour in Cambridge (we went astray) those of us leading the pack headed straight for the station for an early-ish train back to the big city.Bill Shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15124425384903493848noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13665817.post-11888124832440869822016-07-19T07:43:44.794+01:002016-07-19T07:43:44.794+01:00Anyone do this walk?Anyone do this walk?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13665817.post-52032010456986285012016-07-13T13:53:15.333+01:002016-07-13T13:53:15.333+01:00Or 09:40 from Tottenham Hale...Or 09:40 from Tottenham Hale...Keldanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13665817.post-14322903454674274982016-07-13T08:16:54.750+01:002016-07-13T08:16:54.750+01:00Great walk.

There is another travel option for Notherners/Northern Liners: take the fast 9.14 at Kings Cross to Cambridge, arr 10.02 , have a coffee and then the 10.21 to Shelford arr. 10.26 and wait or have a head start. At least you can only walk one way!Pianoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13665817.post-22187301741156675822016-07-12T11:33:22.890+01:002016-07-12T11:33:22.890+01:00The Orchard Tea Rooms are an absolute must, if you...The Orchard Tea Rooms are an absolute must, if you can get into them. They are set in a lovely orchard, with deck chairs under the trees and there is a lot of literary history attached (Rupert Brooks and all that WW1 lot). In the distant past, when there were only book one walks, we used to reckon this was the best tea stop (or joint first with the tea room in Exceat, anyway).Walkerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09314024151810191831noreply@blogger.com
