TREAT YOURSELF<br />
All sorts of delicious foods and drinks are<br />
produced along the <strong>Great</strong> <strong>West</strong> Way – fresh<br />
fruit and vegetables are grown, meat is reared,<br />
beer is brewed and gin is distilled. Sample some<br />
delicious local produce as you explore the<br />
wonderful farm shops. Pile your basket high with<br />
free range eggs, punnets of fresh strawberries,<br />
<strong>West</strong> Country cider, Cheddar cheese, Wiltshire<br />
smoked ham and more. Why not pack it all up<br />
in a hamper and find a spot to enjoy a leisurely<br />
picnic besides the canal or on a flower-strewn<br />
hillside? At Cobbs Farm Shop & Kitchen in<br />
Hungerford you will find a traditional butchery<br />
counter, delicatessen, fishmongers, and shelves<br />
stacked with locally-grown produce. Or dine in,<br />
with outdoors hospitality expected to reopen<br />
mid-April and indoors hospitality from mid-<br />
May, places will be welcoming you back to enjoy<br />
their pubs, restaurants and cafés along the<br />
route. Linger over an indulgent afternoon tea<br />
in a quaint country café. Sit down to a gourmet<br />
meal in a Michelin-starred restaurant. Sip local<br />
beer in sunny beer gardens... Whatever your<br />
tastes, there’s many a tantalising buffet foodie<br />
experience waiting to be savoured.<br />
