Afternoon Tea At Greywalls

Great setting for an extra special afternoon tea, good selection of savouries sandwiches and cakes. Notice while we were there...

Poor quality ingredients margarine on the sandwiches and perhaps the toughest portion of turkey I’ve ever been served. Wedge of pannetone felt lazy and disappointing. Is there a pastry chef?

All excellent and not too expensive. My American guests were impressed too.Gardens and views are awecome! Unusual statues in the garden made us laugh.The loos are worth a visit too very interesting.! View menu

A beautiful setting for Afternoon Tea. Great service and delicious food. The assortment of sandwiches were amazing. The scones were beautifully made one of the best I have tasted. So many amazing cakes and something for everyone's taste.

Had afternoon tea here to celebrate a special birthday. Excellent selection of savoury and sweet items. Good selection of teas and coffee too available. Service was lovely, attentive and friendly staff. Time to stroll round the gardens afterwards.

I won't bang on other than to say that if you think you've enjoyed afternoon tea elsewhere then it still won't come close to this simply wonderful experience. Best afternoon tea of my life. Staff, location, ambience, taste, variety and exquisiteness in abundance. View menu

The staff at the restaurant were extremely friendly and quick in seating us at a table in the library. We enjoyed scones with clotted cream and tried a Dundee cake, which was a new experience for our German friends. The cake was delicious and light, and we also appreciated the lovely tea that was served. The atmosphere was as relaxing as always.

We sat together in the library, enjoying our luxurious tea, as if we were the family in residence. In soft comfortable chairs and sofa, we ate delicate sandwiches, the most delicious scones and light numerous cakes and nibbles. The staff were friendly but left us to enjoy our repast without interference or any sense that there was any rush. The ambience was country living without any hassle but with a talented chef hidden the background. It was relaxing and luxurious, just the way afternoon tea should be.

We arrived and parked on the side of the driveway leading up to the main door of the hotel. Coats taken, we were shown through the hotel past a very comfortable lounge area to the small dining area. Only one other party already there. We had booked afternoon tea for four. The savoury selection one each of three small sandwiches beetroot, ham and salmon with a small dill type concoction on a spoon and a mini pastry. The sweet selection consisted of ginger cake, chocolate cake, macaroons, lemon mousse. The freshly baked plain and fruit scones were delicious with clotted cream and jam. For my taste, there should have been more savoury and less sweet items. View menu
