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.

Flatford Mill is a grade I listed water mill made familiar by the painting by John Constable. There are lovely walks along the river and around the site and a cafe and gift shop run by the National Trust.
