About Us
About the owner: Nicoletta Fahie-Wilson
I fell in love with this village, shop and tea rooms almost a decade ago and finally in July 2013 my dream came true. With the support of my husband and 3 children, I gave up the commute to Canary Wharf in exchange for this unique piece of British history.
Come and see us and let us look after you in this wonderful setting within this truly unique village. Make sure you allow time to see the fabulous church or take a short stroll to the Castle and you will understand what made me fall in love with this village, shop and tea rooms.
