Welcome!
Please enter the Tearoom through the large oak door with its original cast
iron locks, door hinges and latches. Looking around you will see the timbered
roof and
panelled windows looking out into the picturesque courtyard. Around the tearoom
are a
variety of Elizabethan artifacts including a framed section of Lord Leycester's
Will,
embroidered handwork by Amy Robsart, Robert Dudley's wife, a large wardrobe
originally owned by Queen Elizabeth I and brought from Kenilworth Castle by
Robert
Dudley for use by his old soldiers. At the centre of the room there is the original
fireplace now with a new (Victorian) box fire oven made by Flavel's of Leamington
Spa.
Please take take a table and sit in the settle style seating next to the fireplace
and
perhaps imagine the faithful old soldiers down through the centuries taking
their tea
alongside you!
