Had a smashing time at "Dan Winter's" learnt a lot about the Order and the area. The host Hilda was something else, from her hospitality to her knowledge of the history. Not to mention her apple pie. A great day out for anyone who wishes to learn the roots of Orangeism. I'd go back again for round two in a heartbeat.
Great place to visit. Was there 10 years ago with the sons of Glasgow lol 50 and we are returning this July so looking forward to catching up with Hilda and tasting her famous apple pie once again
