   We had tea in the oldest room in the mill. Great service. Beautiful tea and 3 tiers of sandwiches, scones and treats. Great for a special event. We have gone a few times now and would recommend.

   Had to wait 15 minutes to get a cup of tea. Had booked with no meat option ( for 3 of us - we are pescetarians- eat fish but that wasn’t on offer) and somehow got vegan food for 3 people ( 1 meat eater). We expected vegetarian but vegan was awful- had to beg for some regular scones, and put up with the rest. manageress did come over and said we had been put down as vegan- there is no way I would ever had said that. And I had confirmed it the day before by telephone. No mention of vegan. But she was pleasant and we carried on. That is until we wanted some hot water to replenish our tea- no one in sight again. An overall poor experience.

   Overall, The afternoon High Tea at The Old Mill was nice. The staff was very good, although a bit rushed going between tables. We enjoyed a great table with a birthday being celebrated. And had a lovely view of the central courtyard. We took plenty of photos it is a memory we will cherish and share amongst our family for a long Time. Thank you!

   We were ushered into a smallish room just steps from the entrance. The room was tightly packed with as many tables as possible and no windows 4 walls of prints therefore the name the Print Room. A brief history was given on the room followed by a small pot of our choice of tea. We sipped at our tea waiting for the remaining 3 tier stand which did not arrive until we made a point of notifying the server. The tier for one person arrived and my tier took a little longer. Mine was gluten free (paid extra) with a choice of four different sandwiches of which I only got a choice of the first two. The second tray had the scones but again I did not receive what I read on their web site. In fact it was two of the same and so hard that not only could I not bite into them I would have without question damaged a tooth since even my knife would not cut into them the one I tried to cut shot off my plate. Desserts were as noted. The other person I was with also was short changed and some time later one of the two deleted was brought to her separately but mine was ignored and without seeing the menu I wasn't aware of the oversight. One factor that determined our choice for the Old Mill as our Afternoon Tea Experience was due to the menu. In retrospect the menu was placed in front of us to choose the tea and said if we wish to look over the selection but as soon as we chose our tea the menu was quickly removed and I do say quickly which would prevent us from seeing what we were paying for was not what we would receive. We connected with the couple beside us who are real ardent tea goers and they too were disappointed and gave us comparisons. It is noted on the web site that changes to the menu can take place but change is not deleting and giving you less for your money. Restitution should take place to rectify this. On speaking to the manager after, I was told by her it is capacity in other words it is not about us, rather its about them and their profit

   We come for afternoon tea every Christmas; it has become a tradition. We agree that the food is better every year and the service is outstanding. Thank you!

    Desserts could have been better and more seasonal.
