Activate that second stomach for a day of eating the finest produce you'll find in the region. Cherry picking, punnets of raspberries and wheels of cheese line your journey to perk up your already high spirits on the drive. Our hot tip is to park for a quick one at the Hazelbrae Hazelnut Farm; they've got chocolate covered hazelnuts that will put you in the same dream state as Nutella.
