Only popped in for tea and a cream scone - lovely quaint place and the staff are so friendly. Even though we had never been there before the owner made us feel like regulars and chatted to us like we had know each other for years. Tasty, homemade, large fruit scone with just the right amount of jam and clotted cream. Highly recommend with parking nearby at the Top O Town car park. £7.25 each for drink and scone which is great value too

I meant to review this amazing place as soon as I left! We went in the beginning of November, I’d just missed the Halloween decorations apparently. It’s such a beautiful tea room, I hoped it was haunted and yes! Wasn’t disappointed, the lovely owner had lots of stories to share, such a sweet, wonderful lady who couldn’t have been any nicer. I wish she would adopt me, even asked if she’d consider it!? xxx Please visit and support the sweetest and most charming of places and please do pass on my love, from Tania from Bournemouth xxxxxxxxx

What a beautiful b&b with plenty of history. Owner was very informative about the old tea room and surrounding area. She was also the most amazing host, so friendly, kind and welcoming. Made us feel like we were at home. Breakfast was amazing with a great choice of cereals, pastries, yoghurt and then cooked breakfast. The cakes and scones are a must when visiting....tasty! There is a plaque which says " come as guests leave as friends....we have definitely left as friends.

What a place 👏🏻👏🏻such history attached, so many stories to share. Debbie, the owner of this establishment has put her heart & soul into the place. Her family all play a part, her grandson is the chef, her son bakes the best scones. She has a sign inside ‘enter as strangers & leave as friends’ it truly lives up to it! Such a delight, fine china used daily…I hope it remains as a tea house 🫖 for another 102 years. Highly recommend a visit & a meal….or just a cup of hot tea ☕️ best Dorset Apple cake ever & served with a dollop of clotted cream 👌🏻

I meant to review last wkd after we left. Lovely tea rooms and the lady serving was so friendly. Another customer was chatting to me and it felt so cosy. The poached eggs were perfect. I will be bringing my family for a cream tea very soon.
