RIVERSIDE TEAROOMS
The charming atmosphere and character of the mill soaks into the tea rooms where you can enjoy a mouth watering selection of cakes and light snacks, close to the old Rayburn stove. Promoting and serving as much local and seasonal produce as possible, you can take away local preserves, honey and other specialities. In the summer months, eating outside is a delight as you sit in the garden beside the river. Sunday Roasts are best booked. Dogs are welcome in the garden, and free parking is provided.
