Lovely afternoon tea.... Although we had it at 12.30 for lunch on my mum's 87th birthday. Really nice place, air conditioned, new clean. Beautiful views across the countryside and watching some horses jumping in the arena. Nice array of cakes and sandwiches and 2 cups of tea and coffee each.

A great little cafe is located near the Equestrian center. The owner of the Equestrian centre went out of his way to be welcoming and kindly allowed my children to sit in his tractor. They still mention the experience and we will return again soon.
