Approaching Toad Hall

Exit Bridge and Ratty's Riverside Restaurant

Guests approaching Mr. Toad's Motor Mania find themselves at the edge of a beautiful stretch of English Countryside, and in the distance, Toad Hall, the ancestral home of J. Thaddeus Toad. To the right of Toad Hall is Ratty's house, built on the edge of the River and beneath the drooping boughs of an aged willow tree. We can even see guests enjoying a pleasant meal on Ratty's riverside deck, for he has recently opened his home up to offer refreshments to all those visiting this formerly peaceful end of the river.

Stepping onto the stone bridge that spans the River, they pass under an ornate archway
