After exploring the garden or walking along the beach, refuel with a tasty treat from Crofters café. Then take home a gift or plant from the shop, or grab yourself a bargain from the second-hand book store.
Crofters café is open daily between 9.30am and 5pm, with indoor and outdoor seating available. Enjoy expertly made coffee, or choose from the wide selection of teas and other refreshments. Last orders are half hour before closing.
All food is locally sourced where possible, freshly prepared and seasonal. Hot lunches are served daily, with choices ranging from wholesome soups to delicious pasties and jacket potatoes.
Temptation also takes the form of delicious cakes and scones. Cream teas with proper Cornish clotted cream and a dollop of jam will satisfy any sweet tooth, or perhaps something richer like an indulgent brownie will hit the spot. Have a chat with the helpful staff about any dietary requirements you have and they’ll make sure you're catered for.
Dogs are welcome outside, and during bad weather we open an indoor seating area where bedraggled dogs and owners can relax out of the rain and the chill. Dog bowls are present, along with adoring staff to dote on any friendly pooches.
