Our towns and villages have a wide range of shopping experiences for all to enjoy.

We have a mix of major high street names and small independent retailers which provide something a little bit different. You’ll find the finest produce from the village grocers or you can shop in style at fashionable antiques, art and craft galleries. 

We also have an abundance of good places to eat and drink whatever your taste: from village tea rooms to award winning restaurants, and local pubs to international cuisine. Eat by a reservoir, in the countryside, outside a village pub, or in a busy high street - the choice is yours. As well as eating out, we have many farm shops and outlets from where you can get local produce for your stay or to take home.
