Two restaurants - one of which is regarded to be the best in the area, but very well priced!
Bars
Shops, including a delicatessen selling scrumptious home made Italian hot food to take away - with a menu that is changed daily
Supermarket
Banks
The walk can only be undertaken during the day. The drive is less than 5 minutes.
