The Ark Cafe, Newent

Right beside the Daffodil Line bus stop and the lake in the centre of Newent you will find The Ark: a great cafe and so much more . . . 

Get Crafty at Yat Pottery

I’ve always wanted to have a go at throwing a pot. So, on a chilly day in early February I caught the 232 over to Ross and headed down the road to Yat Pottery to try my luck on the wheel, under the expert guidance of potter Adam Campbell. 

Newent Friday Market

Browsing a local market on a crisp and sunny winter’s morning can be a great start to your weekend. And down the Daffodil Line we are blessed with so many to choose from. 

Wassail!

Tied to the traditional end of Christmas festivities on Twelfth Night the Wassail has roots that almost certainly go back to pre-Christian times. And it’s still alive and well in the orchards along the Daffodil Line. So this year, why not see in the new year in unique and traditional fashion, and join the Wassail in Much Marcle.

Newent Lake Sculpture Trail

Did you know that whichever direction you are coming from the Daffodil Line gives you around an hour in Newent, before your return journey? Longer if you like of course, but an hour is the perfect time for a wander around the lake and a chance to admire the nature-inspired sculptures along the way.
