Moorstock: your questions answered
Can you barbecue near the sea around Moorstock?
Yes. We cook under cover and choose a sheltered spot where we can.
Is Moorstock too small for a barbecue?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
What do children typically eat?
Most children head straight for the burgers and sausages, and a vegan sausage covers anyone who does not eat meat. Let us know numbers for children.
