Hand made pizzas that are really good. Call them to order in advance as they only get made as you order so really fresh out of the pizza oven on collection. There is one small table and chairs in the shop and you can eat here and bring in your own drinks/wine if available. I have had guests do this and love it but space can't be guaranteed.

A mountain bike park with a range of different trails to suit all levels. It only takes about 35 minutes in the car so close enough to enjoy before coming back to wash off yourselves and your bikes! There is an uplift service to save you the very long hard cycle back to the top but you have to book this well in advance and it is highly recommended.
