Beautiful cottage set within the gorgeous Antony House Estate (part of the National Trust.) We came slightly out of season and had no trouble getting a table. We sat upstairs where we could enjoy the countryside views whilst indulging in a Cornish Cream Tea (large, delicious scones with plenty jam and clotted cream!) Staff were very accommodating, even offering to make us a pannini even though the hot food service had stopped. Cosy little rooms, nooks and crannies, to enjoy the best cuppa I've had all week, they even had a bookshelf crammed with books for you to enjoy whilst relaxing! A must visit if you're in the Milbrook/Antony/Torpoint and surrounding areas!

We had a lovely homemade vegetable soup with the cheese toastie option today and a proper pot of tea for 2, sat beside the wood burner which was nice and warm and not smelly. Tina and Jane were excellent hosts warm and friendly and pationate about the cafe.

A lovely, relaxing tearoom, just a short walk away from the woodland car park. The staff are so friendly and welcoming, particularly Sam and Jane. Excellent, quick service, always with a smile, even when we call in just before closing! Nothing is too much trouble. Superb decaff tea and coffees and the best cream teas I've had (never upsets my GORD or IBD, unlike some places). The scones are so fresh! Cakes look wonderful too. Very reasonable pricing. There's a good choice of indoor and outdoor seating plus they are very dog friendly. Baby changing facilities are excellent. Love this place!

If you pass by, don't miss the cornish cream tea experience. Sit outside during a lovely weather, remember to put jam first.

Visited this lovely little tea room on Tuesday afternoon. Beautiful sunny day, we sat in the garden. Stunning setting, very welcoming staff and we had paninis which were delicious. Followed by a lovely latte with oat milk. Will definitely return soon. Even had the pleasure of a little Robin

I booked for afternoon tea here for my parents 62 wedding anniversary. There were 13 of us and we all enjoyed it so much. Food was good, service was excellent and nothing was too much trouble. Thank you so much for making my parents day, it was amazing

Lovely tearoom, open Tuesday to Sunday, closed Monday, unless Bank Holiday. Perfect place to come, after a walk, dogs are welcome. When Antony House and the Woodland Gardens are closed this lovely Broomhill tearoom is open.
