Linden Hey Tearoom in Cornwall, Isles of Scilly

We attended a wake held here! Utterly superb. Food and service perfect. Beautiful china tea and coffee seved the way it should be. A hidden gem not to be missed!

Staying on the Tregothnan estate we popped in for lunch: soup, sandwiches, clotted cream, scones and kea plum jam. All delicious; home made and served with charm and a smile. Such a find! Popped in again on the way back to Manchester to buy four more pots of their unique jam. It's made from plums which fall off the trees around the river Fal -supposedly a legacy from Portugese mariners centuries ago. Don't miss it.

This is a little gem. Staff and service are lovely. So nice to have a place that automatically brings an extra pot of hot water with your tea. I am a home baker and known for my cheese scones as well as cakes but their cheese scones are equal to mine (that's not being big headed but they are amazing, plenty of flavour and cheese). Gluten free bread available for sandwiches/mackerel pate etc. Other nice touches are they bring the salad dressing separately (hurrah! a place that doesn't automatically assume every loves it). My only suggestion is, perhaps, a different gluten free cake option would be welcomed by my hubby. Although point of note, they do offer gluten free sweet scones but we haven't tried those yet, that's for the next visit. Like it so much we divert there instead of going to the National Trust cafe when we go to Trelissick

Recommended as the place to go to when visiting nearby Trelissick Gardens. A 5 star experience run by friendly welcoming people. It was raining outside but in this place the sun seemed to glow! The food was delicious and beautifully presented -especially the variety in the salad accompanying the jacket potato I ordered . It was a highlight of our holiday .

So we were on our way home from a fabulous holiday but had been recommended Linden Hey by a National Trust employee (where we were staying). We swung past before heading off on a 6 hour return home. Boy are we glad we did! It was a little early for a Cream Tea (11am) but we shared a sandwich (Aga roasted ham) and then shared a cream tea. It was so gorgeous. The place is amazing, warm and beautiful with fairy lights, and tea pots and things of interest everywhere. The food was delicious. Fabulously light scones. I asked whether to put the cream or Jam on first and the owner told me their wifi code was “jamfirst”. Family run and obviously in their own home. What a wonderful job to have - I’m sure it gets busy, but it was lovely. They also couldn’t do enough for us. Beautiful delicate china also. It’s a definite must visit from me.

My pals and I go out to a lot of tea rooms, cafes, bistros etc. Linden Hey is the best in every way in our opinion. I eat here often: lunches of truly delicious home-made quiche [usually veggie] and a pretty and varied salad side;...

Beautiful Tearoom, very welcoming, lovely friendly staff, great food and service! Highly recommend the cream tea! And dog friendly 👍🏼

Gorgeous little place tucked away near to Trelissick (National trust) - friendly, warm welcome, dog friendly. Incredible cakes and cream teas as well as lunch options including soup, sandwiches, jacket potatoes. The best cream tea in Cornwall (we feel ! And we’ve tried a few.....)...

Called in on the off chance that there might be some gluten free cakes, but was delighted to be told that gluten free scones were available, so three gluten free and three normal cream teas were ordered, we were delighted to get two scones with...

We live locally and pass the tearoom regularly, but hadn't tried it since it opened. We shall be regulars from now on. Lovely service and delightful food and cream teas, enjoyed in the tea garden.

Took my nan here for high tea when we visited and it was without doubt the base I have ever had. The sandwiches were gorgeous (May look like an odd combination at first sight but really does work) the scones were perfect, cakes were delicious,...

We wanted a stop off after a mega walk with the dogs. Saw this place on the way and stopped in on the way back. I rarely find a good gluten free scone and tea but this was brilliant. Gorgeous scone, lovely local tea and...

My wife and Ihave passed Linden Hey Garden Tea Room on many occasions but have never called in. This last week we actually called in. It was an amazing experience, In a lovely garden, peaceful and extremely pleasant. Although titled a Tea Room, they served...

Visit Cornwall regularly and was recommended to visit. Beautiful surroundings, on the road to King Harry Ferry from Playing Place. The food was excellent, the tea was delicious! Can get busy though there is room to sit outside if the weather is fine. Definitelygoing back!

My family went for a cream tea yesterday and it was fantastic. Lovely menu, great scones, choice of jams and lovely tea pots! It was a great experience....we'll be back.

Needed to get out for some fresh air so took my mum out to find the Linden Hey Tea rooms, what a beautiful place which was easy to find and we recieved a lovely welcome. The tea room was modern and clean with a lovely...

First visit here after a morning looking around Trelissick Gardens. We had a delicious quiche with salad and open smoked salmon sandwich, followed by equally delicious cakes. The tea was served in a pretty teapot with extra hot water. Quite a small menu but a...

A lovely family run business within their own home. Locals use it so thats a testimony in itself. We had the most fab sandwiches, all produce locally sourced. Great coffee and Treleaven ice cream , was the best!!!

There is only one problem about having a Cornish Cream Tea here. After having one, the rest seem small, heavier and distinctly lacking in excess cream and jam. So, frankly, you had better stick to the home made cakes, if which there is a wide...

Somewhat tucked away and easy to miss if you don't seek it out which it is worth doing. Probably best to park at the pull in immediately outside. Place itself filled with locals meeting and passing the time of day. Great cake, Cornish tea (!!)...

We got here by mistake, stayed for the warmth of the Tea and personnel. We left the place stress free and with our minds made up to return any chance we've got!

My friends and i spent a wonderful hour and a half in this delightful tea room, the soup, quiche and sandwiches were to die for. Nothing was too much trouble wonderful hosts. Could not recommend this little gem highly enough.

Everyone gets a welcome with a smile ( rarity these days) the food is fresh and home made and if you like tea from a proper tea pot and in a china cup then this is the place to visit.The food is well presented and...

Stopped for a late lunch on a sunny day in September, a lovely setting with indoor and outdoor seating. Drive slow it's hard to see the sign from the road and parking is tight. Nice open kitchen, friendly home feeling. Good cup of tea and...

I had my first visit yesterday with my friend and grandchildren. I absolutely loved how friendly and warm and welcoming we were made to feel. The food is gorgeous and all served on beautiful China plates. We had a cream tea and a further scone...

Discovered this lovely tea room within a house last year whilst on holiday in Cornwall and just had to revisit on our Cornish holiday again this year. Delicious selection of home baked cakes and generous servings of Kea jam and clotted cream with scones. Plentiful...

Popped in today for a take away cappuccino and also had a piece of the Earl Grey Tea Slice - what a treat! Wonderful setting and great service. I will be back to pay my debt! Thank you so much.

Went there for afternoon cream tea with a friend. We ordered the locally grown Tregothnan tea and scones with Kea Plum jam, which I believe is special to just this area, and it was very delicious. The tea was good. We were offered extra clotted...

My partner, our dog and I wanted a brunch after a walk around Trelissick but wanted somewhere a little less busy then the National Trust cafe there so popped into this place on the way home. We are glad we did, the staff were very...

Gem of a place! Awesome food & friendly staff, make this a relaxing & welcoming venue. Would certainly recommend for a pit stop 😊

Bit quirky (like a lot of tea rooms around here) with limited parking so you need to drop lucky. Tea rooms built on side of a house and if it’s raining (like it was when we arrived😳) then there are limited tables inside but plenty...

Had a relaxing tea and cake here. The staff are very friendly and the cafe has a peaceful vibe to it. Lovely tea pots, mugs and outdoor seating. Will recommend this to anyone.

What a super birthday treat to be taken to this little, secluded tea room. The sandwiches were bursting with tasty fillings (I had tuna and sweetcorn, my friends had ham or roast beef) all very delicious, accompanied by a pot of homemade coleslaw! Served on...

Delightful large conservatory style tearoom added to a house! Feels like you’re sitting in t he garden - which you can do also. Creative use of space, lovely vintage china, good coffees, gorgeous scone, gluten free options, good value, lovely service.

Had a great light lunch, all in a jacket potato and a pot of tea food was excellent and tea was great but have to mention the teapots, each one is different, some with victorian scenes some Regency scenes, but no two are the same...

Visited Linden Hey after a walk around Trelissick. Wow what a find. NIna bakes such tasty cakes and scones - you will not be disappointed. I recommend the Bakewell tart and also the cream tea. Lovely China teapots and crockery. You will not be disappointed!!!

If you get chance pop into this little gem of a tearoom. Lovely welcoming people and food to match (including maybe the best Bakewell Tart on the planet!).

A group of 15 of us walked in the area and then went here for lunch, having booked the table in advance. They gave us a long table outside with an umbrella. They were really friendly and made sure we had everything we wanted. We...

Superb in every respect. Excellent fresh food beautifully presented by salt of the earth people in a gorgeous setting.

We sought out Linden Hey from recommendations by friends and were not disappointed! Nina and Martin have turned their family kitchen into a warm and welcoming place to enjoy a break and be treated to the best Cornish Cream Tea EVER! The daily baked scones...

My husband and I have visited this delightful tea rooms quite a few times over the year and again today. It's a real delight. The food we have ate has been great. From soup to quiche to homemade cakes. It has all been tasty and...

On the way to Loe beach and came across this little gem. Lovely warm, personal welcome and great tasting products...Nina & Marttin are great and nothing is too much, customer service is above and beyond!

Warm & friendly. Lovely little place tucked away in Penelewey. Soup was hot, cookies delicious and coffee amazing. Will be back to sample more of the home made food.

With lots of 'excellent' reviews, we were expecting a lot from Linden Hey, whilst on holiday nearby. The staff were friendly and helpful. It was the usual 'quirky' with the usual mismatched china and furnishings but for me it all seemed a but amateurish I'm...

Every visit is a delight. Nina and her helpers are so friendly and the decor wonderful. In good weather tonsit in the garden is a delight. I must of course, recommend the cakes and cream teas. Thank you Nina.

We have now visited Linden Hey for coffee ,lunch and tea, since it opened The ambience is sooo friendly and welcoming, and what a real pleasure it is to eat and drink from bone china, in lovely, peaceful, garden surroundings. Everything is homely and the...

I meet up with a friend quite often for walks around the beautiful Creekside or nearby Trelissick. We had been looking for somewhere that served homemade cakes as not that enamored with the National trust café though used it after Halwyns had to close. Wow...

If you want a real treat in a gorgeous location, and to be treated like part of the family , this is the place to come. Nina and her team are all warm, genuine people who take great pride in all they do. The food...

Tucked away in a tranquil and pretty garden with attractive and comfy outdoor seating, shady or sunny, whichever is your preference, and indoor seating for those chilly and rainy days. Arriving at this tucked away delight, you'll find yourself in Nina's home and garden with...

Opened earlier this year, Nina is bringing all her warmth & enthusiasm to this new venture. Set in her own garden(ably tended by husband Martin) this little gem reminds you of days gone by. Service with a big smile; wonderful fresh, local ingredients and a...

Blink and you'll miss it. Basically a house extended to incorporate a tea room. On arrival feels like driving onto a private driveway and parking is very tight but what waits at the end is worth it. We dropped in for a cuppa and a...

This is a real find. On the road between Playing Place and the Trelissick turn this Tea Room should not be missed. The cream tea was the best we have had so far this year and we were greeted with smiles and a cheery welcome....

New this year just past the Punchbowl and Ladle on the way to the King Harry Ferry. Attractive inside - several tables in the conservatory. There are also some tables outside. Dogs welcome inside and out. A great welcome from the owners and some of...

This is a tea room that is literally in someone's (very pretty) garden. The lady that runs it is so lovely, welcoming, kind and could not fault her customer service! The cakes were scrumptious, we had a toasted tea cake (biggest one we had ever...

Living locally, we have always said that this village needs a place where one can meet with friends and enjoy a Coffee. At last we have the perfect place! Arriving with wheelchair, we had the choice of sitting outside on the lawn under parasols, or...

I heard this Garden Tea Room had recently opened. It is set in the owner's house. Has lovely decor with some curio knickknacks. Nina, the owner, was very welcoming and has a wonderful sense of humour. We opted for the quiche and lizard salad with...

Situated on the B3289 Feock Road towards King Harry Ferry, it's easy to miss this lovely tearoom as it's tucked away on the left hand side down a driveway. It's recently opened and is delightful with beautiful grounds while inside there's a tempting range of...
