Another excellent restaurant very close to home. We love Zazu's and, although it's often fully booked, you can always try The Grace a couple of doors down which is a pub but the food is by the same people.

Stumbling distance from home, this is probably our favourite pub. It feels like Bristol, has well kept ales, board games and books.

Parks & Nature

A lovely park, just up the road. Perfect on a sunny day. There are areas for children, areas for dogs and, a lot of the time, a mobile coffee shop in there. Heaven.

One of our favourite places in Bristol. A wonderful expanse of green for picnics, kite flying and pretty much anything you can do in a green space outside. Stunning views down the Avon gorge too.

Shopping

The road with the most independent shops and cafes in the country. A day out for most of Bristol, our local shops for us. Come and enjoy.

Getting Around

This is the nearest bus stop and takes you into town or pretty much anywhere in Bristol really quickly. If you don't fancy the walk, the bus is a great alternative...and you don't have to have a designated driver if you want to try some of the local pubs and restaurants.

Redland station is probably equidistant from our house with Montpelier but the walk from Montpelier is slight easier to navigate if you don't know the streets.

There's a market along here on Saturdays's but it's well worth a wander at any time. Bars, cafes and much more on the harbourside. Have a coffee or a beer on a boat...or even a cider if you want the complete Bristol experience.
