    Delightful setting for a 2022 Best Start-up cafe! Google took us into the outback, but very easy to find and get to, off of the A358. Excellently situated for a walk a short drive away (5 mins) on the Quantocks. Extremely large car park, and short walk to the cafe itself, with plant seller at the entrance, offering cheap, beautiful potted offerings, presumably from the gorgeously manicured home gardens. Staff very polite and friendly, owner lovely, drinks refreshing (also offering local bottled beers) and (although we didn't eat) the portions huge! The club sandwich had a small flag on top stating "summit"! Prices reasonable, but soup and a sandwich for less than £10 we thought more than reasonable. Specialising in milkshakes, my son had a chocolate one which he said was the best he'd drank, praise indeed from a teenager! Very popular place, queues at busy times, but none moreso than anywhere else, and it enabled one to take in the garden. Toilets nicely decorated, intimate and above all clean. Wheelchair accessible. We're planning our next visit soon, hope to see you there!

    Enjoyed a high quality lunch. Best sausage roll I've ever had. Last year was just cream teas this year light lunches cakes and cream teas. Great location. Fantastic gardens with panoramic views of the Brendon's and the Quantocks

    Visited today taking my dad for Father’s Day. This was our first visit and will definitely be going back. Such a beautiful setting, felt we were away from the hustle and bustle. Service was great and staff friendly. Thankyou for a lovely afternoon. Cherrie

    Fantastic cafe situated in the Quantocks. We went today with 3 muddy dogs and they were so accommodating. There's an inside seating area that's perfect for dog walkers in the colder months. Lots of choice on the menu and such generous portions. The milkshakes looked amazing so a good excuse to come back and bring my children. Very friendly staff and a picturesque setting. Highly recommend.

    Oh my goodness, where do I start!! Our first visit there & definitely not our last. It is the most stunningly, beautiful place we've ever been for coffee & lunch. Super dog friendly, our little Princess loved being allowed in the cafe & thoroughly enjoyed exploring the gardens. The staff are so friendly & chatty. The food & drinks are delicious. The milkshakes are WOW!! The grounds are absolutely stunning, well maintained & everywhere you look, there is something quirky to look at. Loads of funny animals, etc. hiding on the trees & amongst the bushes, my husband & I had smiles on our faces all around the grounds. You can wander around for ages & enjoy the gardens. We felt super relaxed. I am very grateful for the disabled parking closer to the entrance. It's such a gorgeous place to visit. We are looking forward to our next visit.

    Nestled amidst the picturesque countryside, lies an exquisite equestrian abode, adorned with sheer elegance and grace. This resplendent horse house stands as a testament to the beauty of nature and the magnificence of equine companionship. Adjacent to this enchanting haven, a charming café awaits, offering a delightful rendezvous for cherished friendships. With its idyllic setting and warm ambience, it is the perfect sanctuary to reconnect with dear friends and create lasting memories.

    During the summer we had a lovely first visit to this cafe. The gardens were beautiful in such a rural setting and the food was great. We returned today and were very much looking forward to it, however we left with no intentions of returning. The initial vibes when entering to collect a menu were frosty and were then made worse after the customer service we received from the lady who served us was nothing short of unwelcoming and rude. Such a shame.

    Popped in again for lunch after a walk. Great food & milkshake's to die for! Wonderful service and atmosphere.
