Afternoon tea is a pastime that can be enjoyed all year round. Indulge in Traditional Afternoon tea at our forest inspired restaurant, Cambium, in the comfort of our cosy lounge in front of a roaring log fire during the winter or under the cedar tree on the lawn in the summer.

Graze on a mouth-watering selection of finely cut sandwiches, speciality cakes including freshly baked scones smothered in New Forest Jam and thick clotted cream, all complemented by a large selection finest silk prism teas from Birchalls' and Fair Trade coffee. Who could resist such delicious delicacies?

Careys Manor's vegan afternoon tea and gluten-free afternoon tea is extremely popular with delights including vegan coconut milk truffles and gluten-free macroons.

    I contacted Carey's twice by phone to inform of dietary requirements and to change to date of the booking and the staff were very helpful and polite. The foot was good but not up to the normal standards for this venue as we have been here a couple of times before. The bread on the finger sandwiches was a little dry and the cake selection was not as good this time. They were all stodgy and sickly and not really festive. The biggest disappointment for me was on their website Festive Afternoon Tea is advertised at £30 per person yet we were charged £33.75 each so that was an extra £15 as there were 4 of us. I didn't realise at the time as the bill was split in half and it wasn't until I got home that I realised the extra. If this was a service charge then they should specify this as we were not given a bill or made aware of this. We weren't even given a bill just told the amount that was outstanding. If this wasn't a service charge then they owe us £15. We went back here as we have always had a really good Afternoon Tea experience here be it Festive or normal but this was below standard for Careys and has put us off booking again.

    The food was very tasty. There were more than enough cakes and scones but we could have done with a few more finger sandwiches. But there were no staff around to ask. The service was terrible, even with very few customers. There was absolutely no ambience. We weren't offerred prosecco, but we did ask someone eventually. It was like we were an inconvenience being there to serve. The environment was pleasant and Christmas decs were up. Not sure I would return.

    The food was lovely, but I have had better afternoon teas. The restaurant was pretty empty, so no real 'atmosphere' and I am not a fan of Birchall tea bags - I much prefer loose teas. Overall, it was a nice experience and the staff could not be more helpful and accommodating- just that the whole experience is a little lacklustre.

    I took my parents for my dad's 94th birthday. He thoroughly enjoyed it. The staff could not be more attentive, yet not intrusive. The food was delicious and the atmosphere was perfect, with beautiful surroundings and subtle background music. We will definitely be back!

    Lovely afternoon tea, nice selection of sandwiches (would have liked a couple more sandwiches) and cakes. Scones were absolutely delicious. Really nice surroundings. Thinking of booking for the festive afternoon tea, hopefully will be decorated beautifully.
