Had a great day last Saturday at the classic car event. Only found about it a few days before, but managed to get our VW camper booked in . A lot of people hadn't heard about it and said they would have gone if they had known. The event was well set out and the cafe was brilliant. Best Lemon cake I have ever tasted.

Lovely tea room and garden, child and dog friendly. Beautiful meadows on the way to and from and all on our doorstep. Delicious coffee, bacon butties and cheese scones. Friendly and helpful staff. Free parking. A lovely wholesome day out for all the family.

Lovely visit today, there's a hunt for bugs and other activities for the kids, we were there for a couple of hours. The tea room was lovely with helpful, friendly staff. We sat outside as the sun was out and the food and coffee was delicious. We will definitely be back.

Nice place to visit, to sit with cuppa and enjoy the nature. It’s not very big to walk it’s just small walk around the mill but it’s got nice quiet atmosphere to sit and relax.
