VeryGood tea rooms, lovely ice cream. More relaxing than main family cafe beside other car park. Coffee very good . Dog friendly While you are there have a look around the little church opposite. It is well worth a visit and come back when it is open. Really a little gem it has just had a £1m conservation upgrade

We have used the tea rooms a good number of times either for coffee, lunch or an ice cream ( even cater for the dog). Lovely friendly staff who work really hard. Food very good. Freshly made and reasonably priced.

Absolutely amazing service. We went here for mother's day as I had booked an afternoon tea (which needs to be booked in advance). We had our own booth, the table was laid out so beautifully for us, and we had so much food! The staff were incredibly accommodating in making sure we were well looked after and had enough hot drinks (which we definitely did!) ALL the staff were incredibly friendly, warm and welcoming. I can't wait to come here again.

Went here for an afternoon tea and had a wonderful time. The food was delicious (particularly the scones) and they were able to make it dairy free for me. We had a lovely, pre-laid booth in the coach house to ourselves. The staff were wonderful, they went out of their way to make sure we had a lovely time. So friendly and welcoming. You also get entry to the walled garden with the afternoon which was a lovely addition. Can’t wait to come back. One thing to note - you need to book the afternoon tea in advance.

The seating and area outside could do with a good tidy up. Loads of weeds and old seating shame it could be nice place to eat and drink

Lovely little place in converted stables with beautiful walks, history and views. Prices for ice cream were fantastic and they tasted even better. I will definitely be back for a triple scoop waffle cone costing £5!! In London il barely get a single scoop for that price. doggy ice cream for the mut as well. Great place.

Friendly and welcoming little cafe with attentive staff. Lots of outside seating. Cream tea was great with a fresh and warmed scone. Shame the other cakes were pre-sliced, plated, cling-film wrapped and chilled, but good variety on offer. Reasonably priced too.
