After visiting Stonehenge, we sat in the garden with tea, cake and scones. Everything tasted great, and the prices were fair. Such a nice and relaxing way to end the visit.

Lovely place to visit in a sunny day. We had the ploughmans and coffee cake with a big pot of tea. . Everything was fresh and well presented. The cake was particularly nice! The service was brilliant. The lady and young man who served us were so friendly and and attentive. We sat outside in the beautiful gardens, met the resident cat who came and sat with us and watched the house martins & swifts putting on an amazing flying display. It felt like a hidden sanctuary away from it all

We only popped in for a quick cuppa and stumbled upon this little gem – so countryside like, so tranquil and atmospheric. We had lemon and blueberry cake which was absolutely gorgeous, and our coffees were lovely. Service was friendly and welcoming. It's off the beaten track, but not that far and most of all it is definitely worth the detour. I suppose it will be an interesting place for foreign tourists visiting Stonehenge to call in because this place has quintessentially English air. Check the working hours because it only works on specific days.

What a beautiful little gem of a tearoom this is, with the most enchanting garden. After visiting Stonehenge we wanted somewhere to eat and drink that wasn’t the usual motorway services chain. The service here was exceptionally friendly and helpful. We had a ploughman’s lunch, scones with cream and strawberry jam and a blueberry and lemon cake with coffee. Everything was perfect. We will definitely be back.

Driving back from Cornwall to London, we needed to stop of stretch our legs and refresh, while all the while hunting for a place to have a cream tea. We found this gem at the bottom of road that goes nowhere, but it was an absolute hidden gem. We had cream tea and a pot of tea, which was huge. The cream tea was ridiculously good, and we ate in the garden which was super cute. Staff were real friendly and the service was great. I'd definitely recommend this for anyone looking for a quaint English cottage in the middle of rolling fields looking for the perfect lunch, or cake n tea

Stopped here for tea and cake mid bike ride. Excellent selection of cakes, including multiple gluten free and vegan options. Lovely duluxe hot choc for my son and a huge pot of tea. Service was quick and friendly and great value for money. Thank you, we will be back!

This is one of those wonderful out of the way places. It is at the very end of the road as you enter the military reservation. I don't think there is any other civilian establishment out that way. We found it by accident. Hiking there on our way to LarkHill. Wonderful homemade food, very cozy. They also Host a program for special education. Super nice and principled owners. Not far from Stonehenge and definitely recommended for a visit.
