Happy Buy British Day to all our wonderful suppliers and our amazing guests who support all our businesses! 🇬🇧 From our fish to our coffee, gin to sausages, beer to toiletries, homemade marmalade and bread, we support small, British businesses and our local, rural economy. Trading conditions remain very difficult for small business with huge overhead proportionately to the big national names. Small is beautiful, it's personal and by supporting it, you support families and communities too. www.woodlandsatireby.co.uk ☕@carvetiicoffee Carvetii Coffee 🥓@cranstons_1914 Cranstons Butcher + Maker 🛁@nosecrets_beauty No Secrets Beauty 🍺@tirrilbrewery 🍻@hesketnewmarketbrewery 🍸@lakesdistillery 🎣@bellsfishmongerscarlisle #smallisbeautiful #SupportLocal #supportsmallbusiness #SupportHospitality #cumbrialife #guesthouse #artisanproducers #personalservice #britishcoffeeroaster #britishfood #britishbeer #brewedlocally #farmfresheggs #buybritish
