This is a lovely, peaceful site - perfect after a long drive. We were using it as a two-night stop-over on our way from Durham to the Sussex coast but we'll almost certainly re-visit the site for a longer stay. The pretty village is barely 10 minutes' walk away and has a general shop, bakery, pharmacy and an excellent butcher/deli as well as a couple of nice cafe/gift shops and three (or more!) pubs. The parish council has produced an excellent guide to the geography and history of the village and its surrounds. Get hold of a copy and go explore!
