It wouldn’t have to be a special occasion, but it could be of course, to enjoy afternoon tea on
St Michaels Mount in the newly refurbished Harbour Loft.
One does of course have to sample such niceties before one can recommend to our cottage guests so having received an invitation off I went! The clouds were threatening but glorious sunshine was to follow.
Across the ancient causeway…
Dropping in at the Stewards House Gallery and garden on the way.
And along the pretty harbour, past quaint cottages. still lived in today, to the Harbour Loft for afternoon tea!
The English pea, sea vegetable and horseradish tartlets looked too beautiful to eat …but we did and they were delicious!
and the Walnut, tarragon and dark chocolate financiers were most delicious too…
Most importantly these were all made in the restaurant using produce grown and raised locally, even some ingredients gathered on the shores of the Mount. Food yards not food miles!
Probably best to make a booking before you go St Michaels Mount – it would be so disappointing to arrive and find no spaces!
