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.
