Take a seat in the café inside Newton House and enjoy a range of hot and cold food, bakes and ice creams. In the car park, the outdoor “You Are Here” café is a convenient spot for takeaway drinks and snacks, before heading off for a walk or White Park Cattle watching.

The café inside Newton House

Enjoy a selection of sandwiches, savoury snacks, warm pasties and sausage rolls, cakes and bakes, drinks and ice creams in the historic old billiard room, the main café located on the ground floor of Newton House. Well behaved dogs on leads are welcome in the café inside the House (admission charges apply, members free).

If you prefer, sit out on the formal parterre garden behind the house with views of Dinefwr’s deer roaming the historic deer park.

The fair-trade coffee is ethically sourced and blended specifically for the National Trust.
