The Trout Inn

Thu, 05 May 2005 18:13:22 +0000

The Trout Inn at Wansford, a cosy, friendly atmosphere and excellent home-cooked lunch and dinner served at the Bar or in the Restaurant. Separate smoking & non-smoking and ample car parking.

The DNT have installed moorings on the Navigation 20 yards from the Trout Inn. As Wansford Bridge currently prevents boats from travelling further up the canal to probably the most beautiful section, this is an ideal port of call for boaters and walkers.
