The Queens Jubilee Celebrations at The Ramblers Rest
We have had a busy Bank holiday at The Ramblers Rest. Despite the disappointing weather people still turned out to enjoy the celebrations. Traditional afternoon tea proved popular, fresh sandwiches filled with local homecooked Roast Ham and Coronation Chicken and a wide selection of homemade cakes and pastries, our Cream and Strawberry Scones were a definite favourite, along with ‘Victoria Sandwich Cake’ and Sticky Orange Drizzle Cake.
We had a busy week in the accommodation with a variation of guests. Cyclists doing the Way of the Roses, walkers doing The Wolds Way long distance walk and then a lovely family here for the weekend to celebrate their daughters wedding at nearby Huggate church.
Looking forward to a busy Summer season. Lets hope the weather improves and everyone can enjoy the picturesque wolds walks, cycle routes and scenic drives in our area without getting wet! Then, come and indulge in a light lunch or afternoon tea sampling a Ramblers”‘ Rest Platter with our delicious Home cooked Ham and Selection of Cheeses, Chargrilled Black Pudding with Melted Stilton and Braised Red Cabbage or Fresh Salmon Pate garnished with Tiger Prawns and Smoked Salmon with a Sweet Chilli dressing. Finishing off with Bramble and Apple Pie with crumbly Shortcrust Pastry or a Fresh Cream Meringue……
Look forward to welcoming you and please feel free to call Angela on 01759 305220 for further info on The TeaRoom and Restaurant or Zoe on 01759 303292 for Accommodation.
Visit Britain representative has overnight stay at Ramblers’ Rest!
Although we knew we were to expect a visit from Visit Britain to rate our accommodation, and despite a few ‘Do you think she is?’ sort of feelings, Zoe and I were still surprised and slightly ‘panicky’ when a lovely guest presented herself after breakfast to announce she was in fact doing our ratings. She had thoroughly enjoyed her stay at The Ramblers’ Rest and took time to sit down with us to discuss her stay and offer us some very useful advice. We are awaiting an official report but we believe we are to be given a high 4 stars, which we are really pleased with.
The B&B Accommodation is going really well and we are getting a wide cross section of customer, walkers doing the Wolds and Minster Way walks , couples and families enjoying a weekend away and lots of cyclists doing the ‘Way of the Roses’ cycle route. This is a long distance ’coast to Coast’ cycle route of 170miles from Morcambe to Bridlington and to our delight passes through the village of Millington. This couple were setting off early in the morning with the sun brightly shining, to continue the ride, having had a relaxing nights stay with us.
Another bank holiday is upon us.
We have a busy weekend ahead with private party restaurant bookings, the B&B rooms almost fully booked and hopefully busy with customers enjoying the picturesque Wolds scenery and the hospitality of The Ramblers’ Rest tea room. Indulge in afternoon tea, with, for example, a Ramblers’ Rest Platter including home cooked honey roast ham, home made Fresh Cream and Strawberry Scones, Meringues, and Fresh Raspberry Bakewell Tart.
The Tea Room is open Thurs- Monday from 10.30am. We loook forward to welcoming you.
Happy New Year from all at The Ramblers’ Rest.
Angela, Jeremy, Martyn and Zoe would like to wish all our customers the very best for the New Year.
We have had a fantastic Christmas season in the New Ramblers, lots of successful Christmas parties, despite the horrible weather. Thank you to those who perservered with the snow and managed to get here!
The Bed and Breakfast is also going well, and we had a great New years Eve in the restaurant, with our diners taking all four rooms as well. Thank you to Jim and Rach for booking the evening, it was a pleasure having you and hope you enjoyed it as much as we did.
For anyone that has managed to get up to Millington throughout the Winter weather, there has been no denying that there couldnt have been a more picturesque landscape up here in the Yorkshire Wolds. My sister, Janet and brother in law David managed to capture it all on one of there walks around Millington.
Looking forward now to the Spring season, and welcoming back those put off by the weather. Good to see our cyclists back over the New Year weekend, though it became apparent that they had had to pick their routes very carefully, snow and frost still lying around to catch them out!!
I am starting on a new Spring Evening Menu and a Valentines Evening Menu, the latter which should be available to view in the next couple of weeks. Bookings have already started for February 14th, and any enquiries please do not hesitate to call us on 01759/305220.
HAPPY NEW YEAR!
The Ramblers’ Rest extension and Luxury Accommodation completed!!
At last, building works have been completed, our new facilities are up and running. Although we have introduced changes we very much hope that everyone who visited us this weekend liked and enjoyed our new Ramblers’ Rest. With both Open Range fires blazing away, one in the original Tea Room and the other in the extended Restaurant it was difficult to choose which room to dine in, and we felt happy that the added space made things more comfortable for a very busy weekend. It was great to see all our familiar faces back again be it on foot, cycling or by car.
We had a successful evening with the Restaurant, a private family birthday celebration, and had our first B&B booking on Sunday evening, a welcome stop for two people doing the Minster Way long distance walk.
Angela, Jeremy, Zoe and Martyn look forward to welcoming you to The Tea Room and Licensed Restaurant and perhaps you may consider a stay over in our luxury accommodation?
For further details please feel free to contact Angela 01759/305220 for restaurant and tea room information or Zoe 01759/303292 to find out more about our 4 B&B rooms.
Happy New Year to all our Ramblers’ Rest Customers.
Martyn , Zoe, Angela, Jeremy and family would like to wish everyone a happy New Year. December has been a successful month with lots of Christmas party bookings – Thank you.
The snow did not cause too many problems, good walking but not ideal for cyclists (although there were two dare devils who stopped off for lunch when snow was still thick on the ground!!)
A price to pay for our wonderful Wolds location.
Zoe & girls found time to chill out (literally) in constructing this wonderful snow man.
Talking construction the snow has had some effect on building but things are still taking shape. Paul, our builder is looking forward to some drier snow free weather.
The Granary and Mill House Development has started!
It has started at last!
