Which Afternoon Tea in Shropshire Will You Choose?
One of most popular things to do in Shropshire is to partake in a nice afternoon tea. But an afternoon tea in Shropshire doesn’t just consist of a few scones…oh no…we have options with our traditional tea!
There's not only options but a plethora of reasons why you should come to Shropshire and once you’ve come to have an afternoon treat, you’ll want to explore other things to do.

Alpaca's & Scones
For those that like to keep their feet firmly on the ground, an afternoon tea with alpacas is as different as you can get to a boat!
Head over to Broseley where you can herd alpacas and learn all about these lovely animals. After you have explored their habitats in the paddocks, met all the herd and had the chance to feed them, you’ll then be ready for a tea treat!
A locally supplied afternoon tea is given to you, boxed up, where you can then choose to heat in the marquees at the farm, or weather permitting, enjoy the cream tea on picnic tables, enjoying the views of the Shropshire countryside.

And for something completely different to afternoon tea, but one of our most popular experiences in Shropshire, is the cow cuddling experience!
