Worstead, the

plus

enthralled for a full day - or more.
To sustain
our visitors there are several food and refreshment locations, plus
The New Inn, and for our visitors' convenience there are ladies,
gents, and disabled toilet facilities at five different locations
around the village.
If the
weather is kind we attract about 25,000 visitors - about half of whom
are "regulars" - so we must be getting something right!
