I got invited to St Mary's Inn in Morpeth to try out their afternoon tea and i couldn't wait. Im such an afternoon tea type of girl! Me and my mam or me and my boyfriend are always trying out afternoon tea all over the place. I have heard amazing things about St Mary's Inn too.
They have just won the Good Hotel Guide this year too which is amazing to say they are just in their first year of business.
So me and my mam went along on sunday afternoon. No better time ey? Its pretty easy to find (although we did use sat nav) but it is in an odd location. Its in the middle of nowhere but its also in the middle of an estate. Odd. Its like an estate has been built around it. But the houses are lush and what a better entrance. You come into a big car park with big trees and it has such a grand entrance i actually said 'wow'.
We stepped inside to be shown to our table which was so cute. Its the type of place that has no two chairs the same. I love the decor as its oldie worldie and cosy with its massive grand fire place. There#s loads of different rooms to dine in with its own bar.
Afternoon tea was brought almost instantly which we were pleased for because we hadn't eaten. It came on a two tier stand with the most amazing selection of sandwiches, scones and of course cakes.
Everything was gorgeous! The sarnys were lush, then the scones were even nicer. Of course i was starting to get full but there#s always room for dessert right?!
Chocolate one was eaten first of course and i wasn't disappointed! Then the macaroon which has a surprise in the center mmmmm. Then i got to the point where i couldn't eat anymore.
So we ordered coffee to finish us off which was soo delish. We packed up our cakes that we couldn't finish and off we went.
It was such a lovely afternoon and i am dying to go back for sunday dinner because i can just imagine that being even better!
If you're ever in Morpeth or in the north east then pop in and you can book online here.
Why not make a weekend of it and stay the night in their rooms?
Have you been here before?
