Saxton Town and Harbour
Dining: Saxton prides itself on it's local produce, especially it's seafood. For you see, not all the lobsters leave the town for the hungry mouths of the Londoners. The best stay right here, to be served up in one of Saxton's two eateries; The Bear Inne & The Lighthouse Cafe.

The Bear has stood, rather precariously, by the harbour side for over 300 years. Thankfully, service and hygiene have moved on a little since then, so you can expect a warm, and satisfying evening in The Bears snugglesome embrace. Sample Menu.

Alternatively, Saxton's 'Lighthouse' offers smaller plates for the lunchtime diner, as well as local specialities. Tucked away in the backstreets and alleyways, near the museum; The Lighthouse is always welcoming to new visitors.

If self-catering, tourists can rest assured knowing that much of the local produce is available to buy at the Saxton Food Store, or at Wednesday's Farmers Market. Fresh Northfield Apples, grown in Northfield for over 200 years, are a taste to amaze even the most well traveled palette.
