Every Friday and Saturday night, Night Quarter comes alive with restaurants, markets, bands and a lively atmosphere. You can always get a park, and only 10 mins drive from our house. The food stalls change all the time and are great. Live bands are often playing - you just need to choose your food option, drink option, and sit down and relax.
