I've done the via ferrata at Honister and it was expensive but good fun, the cafe was pretty bad and i was surprised to see pay and display in the car park somewhere as remote as Honister, overall the whole place gives me the impression it is totally money orientated and the cafe quality and service was representative of this, very little enthusiasm from the staff.
As for the zip wire, again like Wurz ambivalent, pros and cons. What does irritate me is bloody windfarms. The great myth of our age and as this weeks news has highlighted the tax payer is going to be out of pocket and the windfarm companies will trouser greater chunks of money. And to add insult to injury the bloody things ruin the landscape. Stick them on top of skyscrapers in the cities along with the phone masts and aerials, satellite dishes and cranes.
