Underrated spot close to the cottage. Don't see too many small theatres like this anymore. Great spot to check out a film if the weather isn't cooperating. Oh, and there is a bar ;)

Our personal fave. We spent lots of time here having picnics, taking pictures, and walking around. Make sure to check out the butterfly conservatory. Also, the whirlpool and zip-line is close by.

Great venue in Ridgeway, walking distance to the cottage. Often host great live bands. Worth checking out what's going on while you are in town. Also, home to Brimstone Brewery.
