Lilly's Wickham

We had a very nice day out on Saturday which started with breakfast at Lilly's in Wickham Square.

Our meals were lovely and the service was excellent, although it was quite expensive compared to what we usually pay.

When we arrived at about 9.15 we were the only customers inside and there were a couple sitting outside having coffee. Quite a few people arrived by the time we left.

We decided to try something different.  I went for the Waffles with bacon and syrup and Jan chose the Eggs Royale.

   

We both enjoyed our meals, my waffles were lovely and crispy with plenty of syrup. Jan's looker very nice, poached eggs with salmon on baps with a sauce. We had one cup of coffee and it came to £18.40.  As I said it was quite expensive but altogether a very nice breakfast.   

 

Wickham is a nice village for a wander which we did after. 

 

 We went into Chesapeake Mill which is lovely to wander about.  Absolutely packed with treasures, antiques, gifts, jewellery and lots of other things. Well worth a visit.  We also went into Hemings which we always do when we are in Wickham.  They always seem to have everything you have been looking for.

After that we went on to Mud Island which is a very nice garden centre on the Southwick road. All the plants look so healthy and well laid out.  There is a cafe and a shop.

 

Finally we took the dogs to Holly Hill at Sarisbury for their walk.  Quite uneventful compared to the last couple of weeks.  It is a good place to walk when it is hot, plenty of shade and streams where they can drink.  It is best to avoid the main lake with your dogs unless on a lead as there are ducks around. My two are more interested in the bread people throw in than the ducks. 

If you fancy this walk follow the link,  Holly Hill.  Also here are another couple of walks you may like to try. Manor Farm, Burridge and Titchfield Canal.

Right, happy eating, happy walking and we will see what we can come up with next week.
