THIS year's Tavistock Food Festival, which will be held at Morwellham Quay, will have a free shuttle bus operating on both days.

The festival will be held on September 12 and 13 and coaches will leave Tavistock Bedford Square on the hour from 9am to 4pm on the Saturday and from 10am on the Sunday. The coach will return from the quay on the half hour, with the last coach leaving there at 5pm.

Parking at Morwellham Quay is within a short walk of the festival venue and will be £3.50 per car per day.

Festival chairman Jeffrey Stackhouse said they had only approximately six stands available and any local or regional food producers who would like to join them should contact them through the website http://www.TavistockFood">www.TavistockFood

Morwellham Quay will be open to visitors on both days so families can have a day out visiting the food festival as well as the ancient stannary port of Tavistock and its various attractions.

The Ship Inn and a St Austell beer tent will also be available.
