However, the scones were one of the best I've had. It's deceptively crisp on the outside but crumbles away into a buttery and soft interior. The ratio was perfect, not too tall, so not too bready. The jam was also really delicious. The donut was another stand out. Filled with chocolate and like biting into clouds. Sandwiches were very average. Too much lettuce and nothing interesting about the fillings. Desserts we're good but also not great, included macarons, petit flours, nougat and donuts.

Also had a walk around the whole place (and around the other restaurant) afterwards which is well worth doing.

Champagne served was delightful, and we finished with a great smooth creamy coffee. I could only suggest some soft melodic soft music in the background to blur or soften conversations from other tables as it was so quiet. And we couldn't leave without a walk around the gardens. Just beautiful.
