rest and refuel
At the 1856 Café
Forest adventures and fresh air means a rest and refuel stop at our 1856 café is a must!
Set against a backdrop of stunning natural views, our relaxed and informal café space inside the renovated 1856 barn is a perfect spot to grab a bite whatever the time of day and whatever you’re craving.
Treat yourself..
Spring just got a whole lot pinker!
Enjoy the refreshing lift of our Iced Strawberry Matcha Latte, or cosy up with a velvety Strawberry Hot Chocolate.
Still feeling peckish? Why not treat yourself to a slice of our creamy Strawberry Gateaux, or savour the perfect balance of flavour with our Smoked Salmon Eggs Royale!
Go Green!
Treat yourself to a Hot Chai Matcha Latte infused with ginger, cardamom and cinnamon, or keep things cool and classic with an iced Vanilla Bean Matcha.
Feeling peckish? Enjoy our freshly baked Pistachio Crème Croissant with its golden, flaky puff pastry.
If you’re after something savoury, our Sourdough and Avocado Toast finished with sharp Parmigiano Reggiano, chilli oil and a spring onion garnish is a firm kitchen favourite.
A wide range of
Food and Drinks
