There is a very nice cafe called 'The Blue Skies Cafe' which serves breakfasts and lunches as well as drinks and snacks, there are toilets as well. There are some outside seating areas, either on the patio or on the park benches on the grass. You can go into the office where you can gather information leaflets on flying lessons etc or even speak to some of the pilots. There is also quite a large car park.
