Overview

Enjoy a wonderful afternoon tea experience in a serene and peaceful environment, surrounded by the enchanting gardens of a Grade II listed thatched cottage constructed in 1600. This delightful cottage is located in the heart of Truro's countryside in Cornwall and offers vouchers for two people to enjoy either a traditional Cornish afternoon tea or cream tea. Your experience will be made even more luxurious with a glass of bubbly upon arrival. The cottage is situated on a country lane in the village of Ponsanooth, just off the main road that connects Redruth to Falmouth. It is a warm and cosy place with a charming atmosphere and beautiful flowers, plants, trees, and the sound of birds chirping. The Cornish cream tea comes with freshly baked scones served with clotted cream, strawberry jam, and a choice of tea blend. The full afternoon tea includes sweet and savoury treats, as well as traditional finger sandwiches.
