Coffee and Samplers at Chesters

Here is one of my favourite halts for morning coffee and magazines, or lunch, or afternoon cream tea, or just to browse for lovely ideas - a Gustavian eating place with a gift shop......and SAMPLERS! They are red and white and European. My dear friend Ellen Chester would feel very much at home here, particularly since it bears her name. You can find Chesters at Skelwith Bridge near Ambleside in the English Lake District. Those cake stands in the picture are very enviable.....
