Lady Margarets Park, Chirk, August 1999

Chirk CC siteOn our way back from West Wales, Naomi and I broke the journey at Chirk and spent two delightful days at the Caravan Club site at Lady Margaret's Park, next to the grounds of Chirk Castle. We know Chirk of old from our trips on the Llangollen Canal, but this was a part of Chirk we'd not visited. Apart from exploring the local countryside, and a day trip to the North Wales Coast, we had a wonderful meal in Llangollen, in a tiny restaurant overlooking the River Dee. We were starvingly hungry when we got there, and the menu outside advertised mouthwatering items such as Pheasant, Duck, Partridge etc, and we darted in. Unfortunately they'd recently run out of the Duck (Naomi's choice) and the Pheasant (mine), so Naomi had the Partridge (very fiddly) and I a lovely salmon steak, which was really delicious.
