For a very special meal, try Thompsons. The tasting menu is fabulous. A small but perfectly formed restaurant with lovely staff who make you feel so welcome. Expensive but worth it!

The best village shop I have ever come across. Fresh fruit and veg, local meat, friendly helpful staff. Very rarely do they not have what I want. I do most of my shopping here now.

A little cheat here, but if you love nature then you will love The Little Barn. Wildlife is encouraged here and we are right next to great walking trails and cycling routes. The cottage is big enough that on rainy days you can enjoy the peace and quiet from inside, play games, watch tv or just read.
