“We have loved being part of such a lovely village and getting to know all the locals and the kind people that travelled for miles to see us.
“We would like to thank all our amazing staff and are so sad to have to let you all go but you have all been the best employees and we know you will go on to do great things.”
They added: “We would like to thank all our local suppliers for all of your pretty and tasty home-made cakes that we have all loved so much and produce that’s gone into all the items on our menu.

“Our last opening day will be Saturday and if you have any vouchers that you cannot use before this date please PM us and myself and Russ will honour them.”
The tea room has enjoyed phenomenal public support since opening and nearly 300 people have already expressed their surprise, and disappointment, on the Facebook page.
