Warm welcome and fabulous afternoon tea - the savouries vary each time and the whipped cheese and greens tart was the highlight, but everything was delicious. My partner even got 2 plain scones as he doesn't like dried fruit - surprising how often this isn't possible at other venues! We visited with a friend and her grown up kids to celebrate a 60th birthday and all thoroughly enjoyed it!

Indeed the whole experience was wonderfully relaxing and enjoyable. Really excellent food, especially the battenburg! So while it seems pricey compared to afternoon tea at a garden centre or even M&S, it's on a different level of quality. A delightful treat,

My friend and I attended the Afternoon Tea in the Garden Room. What an absolute pleasure. A great choice of tea to choose from and the set tea was incredible. We have definitely decided to go again.

An excellent experience from start to finish. We were met at reception by a friendly smiling member of staff who escorted my friend and myself to the Garden Room and seated us on a wonderful chaise to await our turn to be seated. It's rare now to find this sort of personal service.

Shiny and sparkling clean cutlery and crockery with a finely starched white napkin. Our afternoon tea was ample, tasty, delicious and appealing. I have nothing but praise for our delightful visit for myself and my two grownup children who also thought it was decadent and wonderful venue.

We sat down at 2.20 but didn’t get served our food until 3.10 . The food was ok but nowhere near as good as the afternoon tea we had at the same venue last August.
