If you prefer to shop, the village offers many unique boutiques that are fun to peruse. Whatever you decide, don’t forget to stop in for a delightful afternoon English tea, scrumptious scones and other treats! Dinner this evening is on your own, but don’t overlook the AAA Five Diamond Fearrington House Restaurant for sophisticated contemporary cuisine.
