Food al fresco: What better way to relax than to eat outdoors on the Sandstone Trail in summer?
What could be better than a tasty picnic with a few friends or family at an easy-to-get-to spot, with amazing views, in the heart of rural Cheshire?
Because the Sandstone Trail runs along the top of the wooded sandstone ridge that runs through the middle of rural Cheshire, it offers some superb places for outdoor sandwiches, snacks, lunches and feasts.
