It is a peaceful, rural spot with good marked walks from the village. A local dairy produces its own cheese, and the farmers keep goats and hens.
The Posada in the village has a nice bar and restaurant with home cooked food and the camping near the main road has a bar/restaurant and swimming pool (3 euros per person).
There are no shops, but bread vans and other mobile shops come to the village. Potes is 6km away with all facilities.
