"Arrived late for lunch but the lovely staff soon had us sorted with what we wanted. Sometimes it's just the warmth of the welcome that makes all the difference"

We enjoyed the coffee (best order the large) and the lunch was tasty and inexpensive. Although we ate outside, the inside looks to have had a make over and seemed clean and tidy. There is now a farm shop with a limited selection of unusual local produce which was previously a craft shop and this connects to the rest of the café. Don't miss the Rhododendrons in Dundock wood, they are free to visit and there are thousands of mature plants in full flower in June. This area seems to have escaped much damage from storm Arwen although many trees came down in other parts of the estate so plenty of logs and tree roots around.
My husband and I went in for a coffee. Asked for the price list. £2.50 for a tiny cup of coffee and £2.70 for slightly larger if one could say that. Two gulps and the cup would be empty. Outrageous pricing for nothing. Walked out. They even ask parking £2.50 to look around and 50p per person if on a bus. It's all about the money! They target tourists because they think tourists expect to through their money away when on holiday. We went to Newcastle Arms in Coldstream where a coffee , TWICE the size of the Hirsel cafe , costs £2 a cup.
A delightful picturesque setting opposite a lake covered in bird life. Friendly and welcoming staff, lovely food and possibly the best fruit scones we have ever tasted. The light lunches were also much enjoyed by us all. Ample walking in the extensive surrounding park either to build up your appetite or walk off at least some of the goodies on offer. There is also a children’s play area, craft shops and museum displays together with tourist information for the surrounding area. Highly recommended.
Walked the estate yesterday then stopped for a break at the Tearoom. Very warm welcome from the ladies working that day. Sat outside in the sunshine in the courtyard with our dogs and had delicious large home made cheese and fruit scones and coffee. Jam comes in its own jam jar. Milk in a mini churn. Nice touches. Would highly recommend. Plan to return in April when we are going to stay in Jedburgh for a week.
