    The tea rooms are located on a noticeable slope but the entrance is step free. Inside there are free standing tables and chairs but there is not a lot of space between the tables. There is also a garden, which I didn't see during my visit, which the website says they will open the back gate to let you in if you require step free access.

    Additional Information

    For food I would give this place 5/5. The café serves a variety of meals as well as homemade cakes and scones. I visited at lunch time and had cheese scone which was served with cream cheese and pickle and then for afters I could not resist their rose and pistachio cake served with clotted cream. The food was utterly delicious. They were rather busy and judging from the conversations there are a lot of regular visitors.
