Four times winner of Devon Life's Best Tearoom award, our tearoom is the perfect place to enjoy a traditional Devonshire cream tea.
All items in our tearoom are baked by the miller's wife on the premises. The selection changes each day, but features predominantly a tempting selection of mill-made cakes, many of which are baked with stoneground flour from our water mill.
We have room for 30+ in our outside under cover seating area and an additional 38 covers in our teagarden. There's space for children to play and take part in our games and challenges, giving you time to sit back and enjoy your cream tea. Access to the mill building is free. Please accompany children at all times. Dogs are not allowed in the mill itself.

Cream Tea
We have a range of cream teas available; as well as fruit or plain scones, we also offer Devonshire splits for a truly traditional cream tea experience.
If you'd like something a bit different, try our thunder and lightning (scones with clotted cream and golden syrup) or our savoury cream tea (cheese scones served with cream cheese and our prize-winning caramelised onion marmalade)!
Cakes
Our selection of cakes changes daily. Follow us on Facebook for the day's treats!
