First ever time I've been to Lindisfarne. After being stuck for an extended period in May Bank Holiday traffic, we arrived just after lunch so looked around for some home-cooked food. Although all of the Pubs looked tempting after the long hot drive, the seafood on offer didn't do it for me (I don't like seafood - nothing against the pubs).

It cost £10 for the two sandwich packs and tea, which might seem a bit expensive but we did sit inside and used the toilets as well. There were lots of delicious looking traybakes available too. We will...
