What Can I Expect

Spend a delightful couple of hours having afternoon tea in Cornwall in the lovely gardens of a thatched cottage in the heart of the Truro countryside. We are offering vouchers for two to enjoy either a traditional Cornish afternoon tea or cream tea, with a glass of bubbly on arrival.

The location is wonderfully peaceful and tranquil, with a welcoming and homely feel. You will be guests at this Grade II listed thatch cottage built in 1600, surrounded by pretty flowers, plants, trees and bird song. The cottage is on a country lane in the village of Poosanooth, just off the main road which runs from Redruth to Falmouth.

It’s the countrified centre of Cornwall, adjacent to the River Kennall and right on the edge of the Kennall Vale Nature Reserve; the former gunpowder factory that is now a World Heritage Site. It’s an ideal place to go for a little walk or a nice hike before or after your teatime treat in the garden.

What we like most about these afternoon teas in this quiet corner of Cornwall are the little extra touches. Upon arrival there’s a glass of bubbles for each guest. Your reserved outdoor table will be dressed in a crisp tablecloth with a parasol to shade you from the Cornish sun or drizzle. And once seated, your host will serve you.

The Cornish cream tea includes your choice of tea blend, accompanied by freshly baked scones, served with clotted cream and strawberry jam. The full afternoon tea adds a selection of sweet and savoury delights and traditional finger sandwiches.

And we have to say, the scones are magnificent. Big, light and fluffy with lashings of homemade jams and clotted cream (this is Cornwall after all!). Just writing about it is making us pine for a little sit down and a scone!

Don’t forget, these vouchers for a garden afternoon tea in Cornwall are for two people, so have a think about who you’d like to invite to join you in the idyllic cottage garden!
