Facilities
As well as the pub, Bawdeswell has a village shop which used to be privately owned but is now owned by McColls, a butcher's shop and a reasonably sized garden centre. On the south side of the A1067 is 'The Park' which has a Cafe, gift shop and conference facility and the Bawdeswell Garage (repairs and servicing - no fuel). Other local services include hairdressing and reflexology and there are some holiday cottages.
The village was without a Post Office since the postmistress retired in 2007 until January 6, 2009. An 'outreach' service is now based at the church for three hours on Tuesday and Friday mornings.
