We excitedly stumbled upon a magical Lido the other week in Bristol (which i just discovered was originally opened in 1850). You would never even know it was there because it's hidden away from the relative bustle of Clifton village, sandwiched in between rows of houses. Surrounding the outdoor swimming pool is a wonderful little cafe serving some delicious looking tapas as well as cream tea! We settled on a pot of rose-bud tea and a hot chocolate. It was the perfect way to spend an afternoon.
Looks so lovely
ReplyDeleteMmmm. I would love a cuppa of rose hips right now. I think finding hidden gems is one of the best feelings in the world. :)
ReplyDeleteWould be so good in the summer!!

ReplyDeleteoh my goodness, it's so cute! especially compared with out scummy lido, but bristol is lovely it wouldn't be suprising.. do you live there? if so you lucky lucky lucky girl, i'm in love with clifton and that road of vintage shops. ahh i've always thought cream tea was tea with loads of cream in and it always sounded a amazing.. but a scone is just as good <33
