We went to an escape room called Mission Escape. Was a great activity. There are pubs and bars about 5 min from the inn and though they are cash only there is an atm and give a fun small town feel with a welcoming atmosphere.

Nice quiet town and a Catholic Church only 8 minutes away so we were able to make it to the daily Mass.
