Café competition results

Trosley - montage of new cafe by SDA Architects Ltd

Following lots of suggestions for names for the new café, we are pleased to announce that the judging panel have chosen...

The Bluebell Café

Two winners came up with the same idea so both have been given family tickets for four people to any country parks events in 2011.

The café will open at the beginning of August along with our new Visitor Centre.

The new café will be run by local caterer Laura Roberts. She will be using local, seasonal produce to present a menu of home made snacks, light meals, cakes and treats - even home-made dog biscuits for canine companions! The cafe will also be serving ice creams, soft drinks and fairly traded tea and coffee. She will aim to ensure the café is environmentally sustainable by using energy wisely and concentrating on minimizing waste.
