Local shopping
This pretty village nearby has a few local shops (baker, gift shop, hairdresser) and also a charming tea room. The Coop store is good for food essentials, with some local produce for sale too, and a post office. If open it is worth popping in to see the beautiful church look out for the fine hammerbeam roof and intricately carved pew ends.
