Within spear throwing distance of the very spot where King Richard III fell at the Battle of Bosworth, nestling in the medieval village of Shenton, lies Whitemoors Antiques Centre, Country Tearooms and Gardens. Surrounding the graveled courtyard car park is a carefully restored collection of buildings, some of which are Grade II listed and date back several centuries.
Within, you can browse at your leisure through various galleries brimming with a selection of contemporary crafts, antiques, curios, fine art, books, clocks, jewellery and the random bric-a-brac of the past two centuries - and all for sale at realistic prices.

Very disappointed most recently with my experience at Whitemoors to be honest!, having been here many times before on a regular basis, and been served by a great member of your staff called Robert! WELL DONEI!!, I have also been served most recently by a woman on the days that Robert is off, who I gather also works in the cafe, and have found her both brusk!, and rude!,

On a wet, windy day this is an interesting place, especially if you're keen on antiques. The small menu includes homemade cakes. Good food at a reasonable price, good, speedy service & pleasant staff. Toilets are roomy, clean & have disabled access although getting a wheelchair in & out of some of the containers would be, at the least, challenging. Car parking is adequate but there was a lot of pooling of water on the uneven ground.

Nice peaceful part of the country. I had arrived from Cornwall visiting my mother after a long lockdown and this is where she wanted to go/show me. . Lots of little areas of interest and a tearoom with homemade cakes. We do like a nice garden to share a cippa and a chat, the whole experience was ruined by the surly waitress who obviously did not want to be there on a Sunday. Tea arrived in two cardboard cups & cake in a bag. Not really good enough for £9.00
A real shame.

A great place to explore and to sit and eat too. Clean, welcoming tea room and a lovely garden with the river running down the edge of it. You need to give yourself a good couple of hours to look round everything. There are lots of different rooms and containers to look though. Old and New items, furniture, tools games, ornaments, books, clothing etc.

Lovely little spot for a Sunday wander around. We love the little huts around the quaint grounds. There are some great antiques to hunt for. After a walk around we went into the coffee shop for lunch.
We didn't fancy a hot dinner which actually did look nice the ones that passed us by. I got a brie and bacon sandwich which came with crisps and a side salad. The pot of tea for two went down a treat with this. Although a lovely sunny day it was cold so 5 cups of tea later I was well and truly warmed up. I liked how they brought an extra jug of hot water to pour it extra.

Rambling antiques centre packed with all sorts of goodies from bric-a-brac to books. There is so much stuff they've had to expand into container units out the back!
I often have a leisurely trip out here and finish with a visit to their lovely licensed tea rooms, with seating indoors and in the gardens. The tea rooms seem popular with shoppers, cyclists and people visiting just to sample their snacks, drinks and delicious homemade hot meals.
Located near the village of Shenton off the A444, not far off the A5 (near Atherstone/Twycross).
