Always a big crowd on a sunny weekend. However, the best time is around 7pm-10pm, summers of course! Roads virtually empty, scenery stunning and great place to stop and have a natter! Just don;t expect a coffee at that time!!!! lol
Been up a few times as I'd head over to a mates in Frodsham about once a year on the bike. Mighty fry-up there as well.
Always good if its nice, and it's my back garden, so to speak. Anytime your coming up this way let me know mate, an if I'm in the UK, we'll have a coffee!
