Top Places and Services in New alresford

Lots of interesting gifts plants and food.
Long Barn is not quite unique but a very special place. They must take a long time planing to make everything perfect, from the quality of the Clothes to gifts and a special service in the Cafe. This is a very exclusive venue accessible by all. The displays and attention to detail is fantastic and the indoor plant area displays are something special. We had some very good service in the Cafe and the food was of a very high standard.

Small carefully thought out outdoor display and lavender fields.

Fantastic place to fund and sample. A picturesque barn, with shop and cafe tucked away in the hills.

You can smell the lavender as soon as you're out of the car, the carpark is moderate but sizeable.

The shop is sprawling and wraps around to meet at the cafe and gardens respectfully. From food, to dog stuff, BBQ and garden elements. Even candles and clothing it has a wide range.

The cafe was the reason we went, it was pouring with rain but added to the atmosphere inside. There was outdoor seating but we stayed indoors.

Seated quickly the staff were great, all the girls who attended had beaming smiles, very friendly and very quick with the orders. Even remembering key details from a 3yr old.

The sample of cakes was great, from Lemon and Lavender, banana and passionfruit to coffee cake. The carrot cake was too moist for personal taste, but still good flavours.

Great venue, and moderately priced, one to go back to.

Sometimes you miss the nice places that are on your own doorstep. Today we found the Long Barn. Had a nice time mooching around and then a good value cafe and coffee. Attentive and happy staff and lovely surroundings. Thank you for our great visit. We will be back

Coffee and patisserie were excellent and the cafe had both indoor and outdoor seating and although it was quite popular we didn't have to wait long to be seated and there were plenty of tables. Staff were friendly and efficient and the prices quite reasonable.

The lavender fields behind the Long Barn are free to visit and very relaxing. I guess that must be the scent from the lavender! There is free parking on site, however there don't seem to be many spaces and I imagine it's busy at the weekends. We visited mid-week and had no problems.

A really nice place to visit .. it was my first time there.. & will definitely return soon.. . Such nice friendly staff.. I don't think I've visited any business, in recent year's, that have impressed me more.. excellent... I do not have a garden/ or allotment any more.. just window sills/an a few troughs outside back door... but you don't need a garden to get enjoyment from here... Lovely... Depending on what you look at.. prices are either good.. or no thanks ( what?). . Cafe was expensive...( glad I wasn't paying). Shame,, because it spoilt experience,, Breakfast looking good.. but didn't live upto description on menu.. was OK.. but wasn't really nice.. & definitely not for the price.. ( I even left some of mine, as did my family). Shall definitely return..( maybe a coffee,, but avoid food).
