Now the village is overwhelmed - and locals say there is nowhere left to park.

One pensioner told The Sun: "Last weekend it was absolutely like Blackpool.

"The cars were rammed in and the extra parking was full up.

"It’s a rainy midweek Wednesday today and there isn’t a space in the car park.

"You used to be able to come in for a quiet cuppa and a bit of shopping.

"It’s gone mad of late – I don’t watch Love Island, so wouldn’t know any of them if they bumped into me, but there are lots of younger people around now."

Local Beryl Linstow, 75, said: "I came to buy just one thing in the middle of the week - and there was only one spare chair in the entire coffee shop.

"I only wanted a coffee and it was a struggle to find the chair. All these younger people are turning up in cars."
