The coffee shop is an absolute must for crumpets and ice cream, which I've been having since I was a child! Walk it off by going around the gardens. Take a blanket and a book, lie on the grass or under a tree and relax. Feed the ducks in the pond (they sell good fit for ducks, bread isn't healthy for them) and watch the birds and people.
