Scrummy, Yummy Home Baked Food and a great Cuppa!
Our Tea Rooms are located in a lovely spot overlooking the garden and meadow. We try to use locally sourced ingredients to make our traditional homemade baked goods, which we’re really proud of. Our cozy dining area and garden are popular for lunch, and our homemade cakes are the perfect sweet treat when paired with our smooth coffee blend or breakfast tea. When summer arrives, you can enjoy a cream tea, maybe with a refreshing glass of Pimms while taking in the warm afternoon and watching the world go by.
Indulge in our specialty – the delightful Afternoon Tea. Each creation is thoughtfully and meticulously baked in-house to ensure its delectable taste. Our menu changes monthly, featuring special themed Afternoon Teas for Valentine’s Day, Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, Hallowe’en, and Christmas. Whether you prefer to dine in or take out, we’ve got you covered. Please note that we kindly request a minimum of 24 hours’ notice to ensure the best experience possible.
Afternoon Tea commences at 2pm/2.30pm with an extra sitting at 12 noon on special weekends such as Mothering Sunday when we expect to be very busy.
We do not run Afternoon Teas in the middle of Lunch Service.
If you prefer a smaller option we also sell Traditional Cream Teas and Savoury Teas. A ONE scone tea is £5.00 and a 2 scone tea is £7.50. Additional charges apply for gluten free and dairy free options.
There is a choice of seating available for your visit:
- Traditional Dining Room: seats up to 35
- Garden Snug: seats up to 5 for coffee & cake, or 4 for Afternoon Tea
- Shepherd’s Hut: seats up to 16 (not suitable for small groups)

Additionally, the Hut serves as a unique and charming setting for extra seating in the Tea Room when required.

Testimonials
Absolutely a wonderful and peaceful place to stay, wonderful choice of breakfasts, Debs and her family and parents could not do enough for us, their information pack was spot on with everything you needed to know, will certainly vist again.
Excellent cake and coffee, as it was Easter, the crème egg bombs were amazing, we were trying to deconstruct the recipe! Lovely baking. Very friendly attentive and accommodating, will go back next time to sample lunch (also looked appetising !)
Great location. Fabulous breakfast. Comfortable room. We had a very warm welcome and had everything we needed for a wonderful short break. The view from the room was perfect. The pub next door was a huge bonus!
