Tips from the Community
Epic village store. When I visited in May 2026, closing time on a weekday was 6pm sharp. I got a wiggle on to get there well before then, as it was a blazing hot day and I was strongly in need of some cold drinks - which were duly procured. Opens at 08:30 on Sat morning and serving tea and pastries is a great breakfast or elevenses option. Selection of food here is epic, quality is high and prices are fair. If you have access to the CSJ Accommodation list, Hector's House is just across the (busyish) road, and (subject to availability) can offer accommodation, including a brilliant camping option.

Good Coffee with great outside seating and plenty of room to put bikes.

A song that—originally from the American gospel tradition—has traveled the world is a perfect fit for this church, which the parish has dedicated to the patron saint of All Saints. "Oh when the Saints go marching in, oh when the Saints go marching in, oh Lord, I want to be in that number, oh when the Saints go marching in." Over the decades, numerous versions of the lyrics have emerged, but an original text cannot be verified due to its early oral transmission. Many artists have taken up the gospel song and released their own interpretations, such as Bruce Springsteen with his session band at a concert in Dublin: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i6eKkirEcgE

This is incorrectly positioned on the map. It should be on the Farnham Road after Fulbrook Lane and before the bridge over the river
