Booked as a surprise for my sister in law and we were not disappointed. Great service, delicious afternoon tea in a lovely setting with a fantastic ambience. The savoury plates were amazing and the deserts to die for. The scones were served warm and the flavour almost pudding like. We would definitely return.

Voted 2 stars overall. Food was overpriced but mostly the ambiance was ruined as they let a hen party “scream” for several hours. It’s afternoon tea not a night club, staff did nothing to quieten the group meaning we had to start shouting to even have a conversation. They were told to quieten but was fallen on deaf ears. Food was 4/5 stars and staff were very polite. If they manage their noise level to be as expected at an afternoon tea then has the potential to be good. But overall extremely overpriced, ridiculously poor atmosphere, so will not ever be coming back.
