Pavilion Tea Rooms

We spent a lovely afternoon exploring the grounds and surrounding area before heading in for one of the tea rooms afternoon teas. It's a shame that some of the areas are still out of bounds (chapel, maize and main house) due to the pandemic but...hopefully this will be reviewed again soon.
