Mother Meldrums Tea Room & Garden in North Devon

Very quaint little cafe at the Valley of Rocks, with absolutely gorgeous scenery. They sell an incredible selection of homemade pies, we shared a piece of the blackcurrant and a piece a piece of the cherry, and they were both delicious. Sadly the day we went had gale force winds and we had to hide in our car to eat our pie, but well worth it nonetheless.

We will not visit again. Overpriced, probably because they have the monopoly as there's no other place nearby. £2.95 for a tea bag, hot water and milk in a horrible paper cup. And £3.95 for Earl Grey! I queried price with the girl serving. She just asked me if I wanted it or not! Appalling. You imagine this should be a quintessential English tea rooms in idyllic surroundings. Not so! I would suggest the owners should stop ripping off their customers but they likely don't care as they think their trade is based on one time users. We're local but will never visit again.

Lovely lunch today thank you Jackie and wonderful service from waitress Helen. So much to choose from, must come back for a cream tea soon .

Very expensive. £26 for 3 coffees and two bits of cake. Really really slow service. Tables outside uncleared. No inside seating and no loos which I thought you had to if you provide seating for 10 people or more (which they do). My cappuccino was disgusting - barely drinkable it was so bitter & everything served in paper cups/plates. Go into Lynton or Lynmouth of you want good coffee and service.

Total rip off. Payed £45 for three sandwiches and three hot drinks in paper cups . And no toilets at all. Which might be illegal. Just because you are the only eatery within 2 miles should not have these ridiculous prices, considering you get plenty of business in the season. Seating on crappy wooden benches . Not good

Ridiculously overpriced. Cream tea served on paper plates. Coffees in paper cups - no other option. Flies in pasty cabinet. A shadow of what it was and so many other options locally. As a local embarrassed to have brought overseas friends here! Avoid.

Wonderful café, great staff, super menu with the most fantastic fruit pies! All made on site 😋😋😋 would have loved some custard with my cherry 🥧 Already planning when we will return for the Apple & Mincemeat 🥰

Beautiful location - such a shame the food is so expensive and of below average quality. Everything is ridiculously expensive (£10 for mushrooms on toast). I had a cream tea - £9 for two scones, cream and jam - plus I had to pay extra for coffee as I don't drink tea! I decided to buy anyway as I'd not had lunch (and this is the only cafe in the area - no doubt the reason they charge so much!) - but the scones were revolting. I managed one but threw the other away. It was very soft and pappy - like a soft white bread roll - just horrible. I was so disappointed as I love scones. Lesson learnt! I would never return!!

I paid £22 for 2 very average/dry sandwiches & 2 soft drinks. I saw one lady working in the kitchen sneeze in to her hands, wipe her mouth with her hands & carry on!! 2 days later, I woke with sore throat & now both my husband & I have horrible coughs - don't think this is coincidence! Very bad practice, quite shocking.

Amazing, amazing, amazing! I cannot stress enough how amazing this place is every time we visit, we come back year after year and the service, quality and everything is brilliant and consistently good (I’m not sure what all these negative reviews are about 👀) the service is amazing, the girls are attentive and polite and the lady who makes all the pies and scone has such a talent (if you’ve tried you know) we have always had such a lovely time here and will continue to come back

Cafe from Hell! For years this has been a must visit cafe, proper coffee and delicious cakes but not anymore. Had the most disgusting coffee in paper cups costing £7.70 which we were forced to throw away utterly undrinkable! Sales assistant truculent and unhelpful no interest in customer service. No toilet available now which is unreasonable. Directed to public toilets some distance up steep walk not suitable for anyone with poor mobility. Having previously been long term customers this will definitely be our last visit.

My friend and I came her because the Lee Abbey Tea Cottage was closed that day and she said that a was lovely place to have tea. I was charged over £14.00 for 2 tea bags with hot water in a paper cup and two mediocre chocolate brownies wrapped in cling film. Really?

Terrible cost and terrible service. Asked for a scone with jam and butter and a coffee. was charged £11.80. It was eventually explained after we had paid that this was the cost of a cream tea with additional cost of a coffee and exchanging cream for butter. Was not offered or given a cup of tea or the cream! Strange logic and expensive meal. Will never visit again even though in the past we have been satisfied. The place, food and service have deteriorated badly. Poor customer service no help or assistance, only truculence..

My husband and I took my daughter and grandson, to the Valley of the rocks, a place we all enjoy, unforunately the day we went was Friday 25th August, not a good day was drizzly and raining, we went to the tea rooms for their excellent food only to be told we couldn't sit inside, other people couldn't understand why, also we were not allowed to use the loo, as it was locked, such a shame for a beautiful place with excellent food. Not impressed Margaret Albery

Called in for a hot drink after a rather windy walk down in the valley. Paid over a fiver for two cups of tea. Served in a paper cup, and tasted awful, real dishwater ! We had to walk away and leave it, and went back to our hotel for a cuppa. Have visited for many years, and had lunches or cream teas or cakes there , but this was definitely our last visit.

No inside seating, had to pay cash if under £10 - our two coffees came to £7.70 and luckily we had cash - it's a clever way to get customers to buy something extra to make the money up to £10? We saw many elderly people struggling to walk 5 mins uphill to the car park toilet We could not believe that an establishment that serves sit down meals did not have a toilet? Also why serve coffees in paper cups at £3.85 each surely that merits a nice cup and saucer.

Plastic-free mugs, crocks and cutlery, excellent vegan food, good portions. Toilets are a couple of minutes walk away, so be prepared. Car park right next door.

We called here for tea after a day out in Lynmouth. This is a lovely little tea garden with a reasonable range of food on offer, and a specials board. The only thing not in its favour is that when we are paying quite a bit for jot drinks. I would expect it to be served in a proper cup rather than a paper one

lovely little spot, it has a nice garden to sit in, we had chips & pie, we also had a couple of cakes to take away, it was all yummy also the walks around the valley is amazing

Food was reasonable although a little pricey, but not unexpected considering the location. The staff attitude on the other hand was very poor. Everything appeared to be too much trouble for older lady on the counter, and woe betide if you made a change. There was also an older man in the background constantly moaning (and swearing) about the internet connection.

Having been to Mother Meldrums in the past and always had a good experience, sitting inside on cold days by the fire, we decided to take some friends to lunch today. It was bitterly cold at the Valley of the Rocks and of course we intended to sit inside. I was told that there was now no indoor seating and I asked why? I was told that the indoor seating area was closed off during covid (that old chestnut) and that people only used it on cold days anyway. I pointed out that covid was long past and that today was one such day (cold) and we had young children with us. We tried to use the toilet which was now locked up and the food was very pricey. £6.45 for a portion of cheesy chips for children. We decided not to stay and instead opted for a nice cosy cafe with hot food in the town. I'm afraid Meldrums has lost the plot and it's previous appeal.

I pity the poor girl working at the service counter today. Under instruction from the “kitchen” to deliver orders whilst single handed also using a calculator to add multiple items, serve drinks, etc etc. The crab sandwich was predominantly brown meat, the fish finger sandwich...

Very friendly welcome, lovely garden, pies to die for! Avoid the milkshake though (it’s just milk and syrup), most expensive glass of milk I’ve ever had.

We stopped her after a walk to the valley of the rocks, we were just going to have a drink, but when we saw the pies, we couldn't resist. We had the Mincemeat and Apple lattice, it smelt just like Christmas and tasted wonderful! All...

Having walked the coastal path to the valley of the Rocks, we were pleased to see that the tea rooms where open. We were welcomed by the two ladies serving and were immediately tempted by the slices of pies on display. I slice of home...

I feel that I just have to write a review for this page. Have visited many times in over 40 years and never had a complaint, I fail to see why people would. Very friendly staff, the pies were to die for and quiche also...

Tea & cake here on a gorgeous day, doing very good business. Pie looked scrumptious but we didn’t have room. Service was fine but no toilet for customers. “Out of order at the moment & cannot get a plumber”…. Just up the road long queues...

We were looking for a quality cream tea and thought this would be perfect. We were wrong. The cream tea was poor and did not warrant the price. The service was functional. We will not be going back.

I can’t fathom what a lot of people are talking about in any negative reviews. There’s been talk of about sad looking gardens!? The tea room is slap in the middle of one of the most scenic areas of the UK! Visible from every part...

Very pleasant staff, very tasty tea and cakes and well priced. The garden is lovely though we did take our goodies away with us in disposable cups so we could walk around the valley of rocks.

We have visited this venue numerous times over the years but the last few times we have suddenly found the customer service to be unfriendly and dare I even say bordering on rude. There is an older lady who clearly is not enjoying the job...

We stopped here for refreshments on our way to the Valley of the Rocks. We were enticed in by the luscious cherry pie and clotted cream which was the size of an ice cream scoop. The coffee was delicious, amazing selection of hand made freshly...

Lovely food, scruffy garden, pleasant young assistant, aggressive rude old woman. No toilets. Take a picnic is my advice!!!

This tearoom is in a stunning setting in Valley of the Rocks and it does have a lovely garden (outside seating only). But it's horrendously overpriced. All served on throwaway plates, cutlery & cups. The young woman serving was very grumpy, and took forever. Such...

I was shocked to be charged over £25 for 3 hot drinks (2 teas, 1 coffee) and 3 slices of fruit pie with clotted cream. The young girl serving could not have been less polite if she tried, and the "garden" has seen better days....

The setting is fabulous, garden a mess. Food great but very very expensive. Staff unfriendly and all serviced on disposable plates etc.

Came here 2nd time. The Valley of Rocks is amazing and the sea side hill top walks so enjoyable. The cafe serves good food and service prompt. Can be pricey but We enjoyed it.

Lovely garden to sit in whilst we enjoyed a cream tea in the sunshine, lots of choice of cakes and ice creams.

Pretty setting within valley of the rocks and garden is lovely BUT......very overpriced! £18 for two sandwiches and a bottle of water! Sandwiches came with no side salad or chips.....just plonked on a playe and looked like it just came out of a packet from a supermarket! Only thing that makes this place is the setting and the polite lady serving us.

Would loved to have tried it but every time it was advertised as being open it was closed. Pity as it's in the ideal location.

After lots of climbing we asked here for week deserved refreshments.3 cream teas and a fish finger sandwich. The food was nice and a generous dollop of clotted cream as well. A bit pricey, as others have mentioned, but we were on holiday and therefore disnt begrudge this

In the valley of the rocks, it’s the ONLY tea room, and the very high prices reflect this. It’s very picturesque, and a lot of outside garden seating is in the shade which is welcomed as it’s a very exposed area

We had four sandwiches, one sausage roll, a slice of cake, and bottles of water/juice. We spent a shade over £50! The sandwiches were £7.50 each, and comprised shop-bought bread with basic fillings, and no garnish whatsoever. Drinks were >£3 each. The limp, microwaved sausage roll was as good as you’d get in Greggs, albeit 3x the price. Lovely location. A real shame so little effort was put into the food, particularly at such prices.

Disappointed having been here a few times before. Asked for a cream tea but with coffee instead of tea but was asked to pay for an additional coffee because the cream tea had to come with a tea!!! Cream team (1 scone), coffee and a slice of cake £17!!!

Not open at the time advertised on Google that it is. A shame as we had planned our walk to include a stop here and several other people had too.

Arrived early this afternoon to be told the kitchen was closed. Even a Ploughmans was unavailable.I had a very ordinary microwaved pastie and my vegetarian partner had no choice other than a fruit tart. The place is full of fruit tarts - cherry tarts, blueberry tarts, apple and raspberry tarts...A great place for fruit tart lovers, and tea-bags in paper cups.Garden is pretty, hence 2 stars.

Seemed an expensive cream tea at over £7, particularly when the jam was a tasteless scoop from a giant catering tub and the tea was a bag left in a cardboard cup (I realise these are covid times).Average only because the garden was so beautiful.

Visited on 3 occasions during a recent stay in the area, including 2 visits in 1 day! The breakfast rolls are delicious (I had sausage & egg), as are the fruit pies, an they make a great cup of tea. The opening times are a little erratic! They advertise that they open at 10.00am, but on the 2 mornings we visited, we were waiting for them to open, at 10.30am and 11.00am. It was well worth the wait though!

Nice setting but not what it was. Queued for 25 minutes for 2 below average hot drinks. One Nescafé style coffee and one really weak tea served in a takeaway cup. You aren’t even allowed to put your own milk in! We didn’t eat purely due to the prices and where they once had a toilet they now direct you up the road to the public loos. At least if you are charging this much for food open up your onsite toilets. Too many establishments blaming Covid for just frankly below par food and service.

A lovely cream tea after a long hike. Quality was spot on, only disappointing thing being paper plates and cups but we forgive them as it really was lovely

The garden and overall setting for a pitstop can’t be faulted it is beautiful. The staff are also a super friendly and hard working bunch. But the quality of the food is we had left a lot to be desired and was hugely expensive. The ‘luxury’ fish finger sandwich was 3-4 fairly ordinary fish fingers on 2 slabs of dry unbuttered stogy bread served on a paper plate with no salad or any sides at all. This for £8! The salmon and cream cheese sandwich was the same deal. Extremely ordinary/plain sandwich, no garnish or anything and also £8. When you order an £8 sandwich you expect better than bus station food. Had to eat / drink off paper cups /plates too which was a bit rubbish and if this is supposed to be a covid precaution it’s the first I’ve seen it in any dine-in place since restaurants started opening up. £2.50 for a solitary teabag might have been easier to justify if it’s in a China cup… Lovely setting, lovely staff, sort out the food and price it fairly and you’d have a gem.

Good quality tea - and not spoiled by the Covid secure disposable cups - and delicious and (to my palate) not too sweet cakes. They tasted "home made", but I can't guarantee that. As long as it's dry, there's lots of space to sit in the garden. The public loo is about 5 mins walk up the road towards Lynton.

We spent an idyllic afternoon in the Valley of the Rocks, refreshed by our visit to Mother Meldrum's for tea and ice cream. The serving ladies are delightful, as is the gorgeous garden with tables and chairs, lots of beautiful flowers everywhere, shady trees, happy people enjoying the sunshine ambience! We were happy, too! Wish we were there now!

Wonderful Vegetarian pie, sausage roll and the Apple and Mincemeat and Apricot Tart were delicious. Best I have had in a while!

Been before and enjoyed a crab sandwich. So on our return to Valley of the Rocks we decided to not take a flask and support the tea rooms in their re opening after Covid.They are only letting one person in at a time which is fine but you can’t see what cakes are on offer etc for the rest of your party. Maybe a board outside listing the cakes would be a good idea. Mind you they weren’t too exciting to be honest. Loads of slices of pie, 3 homemade cakes and about 7 varieties of tray bakes that looked liked they’d seen better days.We had carrot cake which was quite dry but had good amount of nuts and fruit which I like. All served on paper plates and cups due again to Covid.The lady serving seemed stressed and snappy even before opening our mouths and was muttering on about another customer. This could be a wonderful place with a little love and more interest. It’s a prime spot in a beautiful area

We first visited last October and today we revisited. Absolutely outstanding surroundings in the beautifully maintained and peaceful garden. Super friendly staff. We really enjoyed our sandwiches and didn’t have room for dessert although it all looked very tempting. Will definitely return. Highly recommended.

Splendid food selection at Mother Meldrums! A real haven in the Valley of the Rocks- the quiche and crispy chips were delicious and wonderful scones with generous scoops of clotted cream and of course jam! We sat here for hours, reading our books and relaxing..

What a great little place in the Valley of the Rocks! Welcome pit stop on our travels for the day, delicious pasty and possibly THE Best chips I have ever eaten, not a lie! Even compared with fancy restaurants, crispy, hot, chunky and really tasty :)Lovely staff and amazing looking pies and cakes too, regretfully, no room to fit them in after our lunches. Definite one to visit if you're walking in Valley of the Rocks, enjoy a cuppa outside in the beautiful garden in the sun.

Excellent quiche and chips served in garden by happy chatty staff despite all the pressures of being busy and short staffed. Thankyou xx

We recently visited this lovely tea room, unfortunately the weather was atrocious so a welcoming site. We could only purchase food and drink to take away due to the restrictions, but it was lovely. The ladies in the tea room were so lovely and friendly. I would definitely recommend a visit, the cakes and pies looked amazing. On a lovely summer day a perfect place to stop off on your walk.

Visited a few years ago and were a bit wary due to COVID but were not disappointed. Although it was busy the service was efficient and the crab sandwiches and cream tea excellent. Will come back if in the area again

In a glorious setting this is a lovely cafe. We had coffee, hubby had a scone with jam and cream. I’ve never been given so much cream, he said it was delicious, I had a huge slice of chocolate cake with the option of having it warmed up. We really felt relaxed here. The lady was super friendly and Covid restrictions were followed. Highly recommended.

The cafe looked shabby chic, but combined with paper cups and plastic plates, with a queue to get in, we gave it a miss on this occasion.

Popped in for a coffee while walking in the Valley of the Rocks.But had to order a slice of warm Cherry Pie with thick Devon Cream as the all looked so inviting.Wasn't disappointed, it was absolutely delicious, and coffee was good too.I notice some people moaning about price, but considering it's location and the home cooked quality i thought it very good value. They should come up to London if they want to see exorbitant pricesFriendly Staff, Delicious Food, great Location, highly recommended

The tea garden was very welcome on a windy day visit to the Valley of the Rocks. Seating is all outside in a delightful garden although I don’t know how customers would cope in the bad weather. The only strange thing is that the café is ¼ mile away from the nearest toilets!

Pleasant enough but very pricey.Over £12 for 2 scones and 2 drinks.captive audience.wont bother again.

Ideal location when visiting the valley of the rocks. Good coffee and cake. Returned another day for clotted cream ice cream. No indoor seating just picnic tables in the garden so a bit weather dependant.

Stopped here for treat whilst walking the coastal path. Friendly welcoming service. I had date and apple shortbread, delicious. I'm not vegan, but my daughter is dairy free so always on look out for good choices for her and she would not have been disappointed at choice of cakes and slices available.Would visit again.

Visited this lovely friendly cafe twice this week, scone and cream on our first visit then after deciding to watch the sunset a nice hot meal was gladly served even though it was quite late. Lovely friendly staff. Yes cardboard containers and cutlery but under present circumstances acceptable.

This is a lovely tearooms, in a beautiful location. Expensive, due to being on a popular walking route. We had the most disappointing disgusting scones we've ever come across. The cheapest jam possible and tasteless cream. Scones were soggy and just fell apart, struggled to put the jam and cream on, had to eat them with cutlery.

Expensive slices of pie crudely slapped onto naff paper plates, pie filling tasty but pastry on all was undercooked and slimey on the base, over priced child's ice-cream. But worse than that...the customer service is awful, it's humiliatingly bad...the younger staff members need a telling off! Mother Meldrum you have a captive audience and don't you just know it! The garden is nice...I suggest the far end, as far from the customer service as you can get. We will pack our pie and we will not revisit.

Due to the current situation of Covid and shops and businesses encouraging everyone to pay via card rather than cash, we went to the tea rooms, for a refreshing afternoon treat, only to be confronted by very poor customer service. The staff had extremely unfriendly and bad attitudes toward customers who had no option but to pay by card. Our experience led to our ice cream being plonked into a coffee cup because we didn’t have any cash to pay. The staff member that served our ice cream had only just gone and emptied the bins around the garden and went inside and DID NOT wash her hands. This is somewhere I will NEVER return to.

The tearoom garden is amazing and a real wildlife haven. Child friendly and dog friendly too. Coffee hit the spot and the cream teas are highly recommended. Portions are huge! Staff helpful and accommodating... would highly recommend

Nice ladies served lovely lunch. Excellent standard of food made to perfection. Great location too. Eating was at picnic benches in the Delightful garden and your order was bought to you. Masks were only needed when ordering inside the cottage but plenty of space outside.

Stopped off here to enjoy some coffees and snacks after walking the coast path form Lynton to the Valley of the Rocks.It is a lovely location, a quaint garden with lots of benches to sit outdoors, well planted with an abundance of birds.The staff were very friendly, and they had a great selection of homemade delights, tarts, cakes etc. We had some fish finger sandwiches, a ploughmans and a few coffees. All the food was delicious and came out very promptly.Truly a great spot, especially when the weather is good, as you can see all of the surrounding rock formations from the comfort of the team rooms garden.

Visited Valley of Rocks on a rather chilly windy day (in July!). Lovely friendly staff. We will return.

We stopped here for a cream tea when on a walk. The location of the tea room is absolutely fantastic, surrounded by the valley of rocks. We each had two scones with cream and jam which in hindsight was way too much food for us to get through! Scones were good but very crumbly so hard to spread on jam and cream.

This is the only café in The Valley Of The Rocks and therefore has the market cornered and the high prices reflect this. I am a local and enjoy my Devon scones however the scones I had at Mother Meldrums were the worst I have ever tasted (hard, dry and tasteless), however if it's just a cup of tea or coffee you want then sitting outside in the garden on a sunny day is best, they are also dog friendly with water bowls place all around the garden.

Brilliant cafe location. Delightful staff and even better fruit pies! I would recommend their hot chocolates to everyone. A wonderful place to have lunch. Will be back!

We ate at this cafe twice, my husband had the soup, tomato and basil which he had two days on the trot as did I with the coffee and walnut cake. I wish I had room for sandwiches too because they looked fab when they were being brought out for other people. The setting is beautiful and we were very lucky with a sunny day, they were playing cricket in the nearby club and it was great listening to the sound of the match. I can’t wait to visit again.

Stoped off when walking the Valley of Rocks fairly good menu hot meals sandwiches cream teas etc only let down was hardly any fizzy drinks in fridge plenty of indoor and outdoor seating.

This cafe is in an idyllic location. We only had coffee and cakes but the main meals also looked very tasty

Just been to the play at the rocks. Got chips to eat outside. Service was great and nothing was too much trouble. Great team. Lovely chips and cakes looked so great, had to really control myself until the interval.

Always a pleasure, we were not let down by the excellent cream tea in the wonderful Valley of Rocks in Lynton. Jackie and her team continue to look after everyone wonderfully. It is not to be missed!

Lots of cream and Jam and very large scones - you eyes maybe bigger than your belly as it is a challenge to eat it all, so maybe share. A bit disappointed when ordering four cream teas and asking if we could change three of the tea drinks to two hot choc lates and a soft drink. (Yes a bit painful I know, but not everyone likes tea but love scones and cream) We were charged for the three teas we did not have.... everywhere else we have been we have paid the difference in price of the drinks - but not sure why they cannot do the same - being the only place to get refreshment in the valley of the rocks does not mean you cannot be a little accommodating.

Stopped here with 9 adults, 4 children and two dogs. Wonderful garden, amazing home made food, sheltered spot and lovely end to visiting the valley of rocks. Altogether a really memorable place to visit.

When we arrived the tea room was very welcoming and the staff were very friendly. They had a great selection of cakes and pies which were delicious. Such a lovely visit Thankyou

We parked up at the adjoining car park and popped in for a coffee before our walk and where so impressed with the Mother Meldrums that we had to come back.The staff where lovely and so friendly.Our lunches where lovely and the home made fruit pies delicious.Highly recommend.

After a bracing walk along the Valley of Rocks we were delighted to find Mother Meldrum’s tea rooms

Stoped for a cream tea with my wife and 2 teenage boys. While the 2 scone tea appealed, the cherry pie looked too good to miss. We ended up having some of each, both obviously home produced and well worth having. Match this with excellent tea, enough for two cups each and the thickest clotted cream we have ever seen. Will definitely go again if we pass this way.

We popped in here before we did valley of the rocks.

Scones were a disappointment as texture, taste lacking and not served warm (maybe we needed to ask for this so could be our fault). Lemon drizzle cake definitely past its best.

Wonderful tea rooms in a unique setting. Like something from The Hobbit! Fabulous drinks, food and cakes and ladies who run it. Beautiful gardens with shady trees. Too pretty!

We visited here after taking in the amazing views of the Valley of Rocks near Lynmouth. The service was great, very friendly staff and the homemade cakes and pies were out of this world. We ate chocolate cake, blueberry pie, apple and raspberry pie and carrot cake - all were absolutely delicious. We can’t recommend it enough.

Deze tea room ligt midden in Valley of Rocks (ook wel bekend als Little Switzerland). Een unieke locatie waar je behalve binnen ook in de gezellige tuin kunt zitten. Je kunt er te voet en met de auto komen. Behalve thee/koffie en zelfgemaakte taart zijn er ook heerlijke warme maaltijden te krijgen.

The tearooms are situated in the Valley of Rocks near Lynton. This is a stunning iconic location and the views are awesome. Others will have told you about the amazing scones and Mother Meldrums provides what is certainly one of the best cream teas in Devon. We had a ploughman's lunch which was delicious and excellent value for money. The staff were helpful and friendly. There is a car park adjacent to the cafe, just follow the signs to the Valley of Rock. However we usually park in Lynton High Street and walk along the road which runs along by the side of the church and leads to the coastal path .It is then about a 30 minute easy walk to the Valley of Rocks with amazing views. The path is sturdy and well defined but not suitable for young children as it is adjacent to very steep drops which are not fenced. We had a lovely walk and an excellent meal in a beautiful setting.

We stopped in a bit early for morning coffee - my wife had a piece of cherry pie and I wasn't going to have anything but their scones looked so good I had to have one. And it was worth it, it was absolutely delicious, baked on site, and with very generous clotted cream and jam.

what a wonderful tea room very friendly and welcoming and most excellent home made fruit pies just what you need after a good walk

After the cliff walk to Valley of Rocks, tea and scones in the peaceful garden was splendid! Two large scoops of Devonshire cream. Excellent! Would love to go again whenever we are in North Devon!

A great range of cakes available served with a massive dollop of cream. Fruit tea selection as well as traditional tea. Plenty of inside and outdoor seating.
