We took afternoon tea at Stoneleigh Abbey which was very nice and excellent value for money off a Wowcher deal. The only criticism is that could have paid a little more attention to detail. In as much as the cream for the scones was served in the plastic container that it arrived in from the supplier. It's easy to tip it out into a China glass or porcelain pot and it looks so much better. They should have asked if we would like another pot of tea it costs nothing for a tea bag and hot water. Still overall we enjoyed our afternoon tea. Returned visit today in much better weather. The orangery was great with the widows open and the view of the lake was lovey afternoon tea was great and they'd put the cream for the scones on a dish. Much better presentation. L in all a great second visit.

Bought a grounds only tickets. Nice walks around the estate. Easy walking but to get the best you need appropriate footwear. The river and woodland walks are easy going but could be slippy/muddy in wet weather. They specialise in weddings, so some areas could be closed so reccomend booking in advance to avoid disappointment. The orangery served good food at a reasonable price (£7 for a cream tea (august 22 price)).

Went for high tea and a lovely walk around the grounds. Found some California coastal Redwoods
Along the banks of the river Avon imported 150 years ago which was a very pleasant surprise being that I'm from California and a little home sick made my day! I would recommend late spring when all the flowers are in bloom. The service for tea was very nice with a Big smile.

Lovely day out, lots of walking. Afternoon tea was alright, abit basic where the scones appeared to be shop bought, and came out cold. We were only offered a thin slice of cake each. Nice for a day out but not worth the afternoon tea cost

Lovely peaceful setting. Quite an adult day out not much for children but brilliant wide and clear walkways. Enough there for a good 3 or 4 hours. We haven't done the house tour but definitely going back to do it. We did indulge in a cream tea in the orangery which was pleasant. Definitely recommend a visit. Don't forget to do the stables on the way out. Free parking too!

Very nice estate to wander around, very picturesque and tranquil. Rather expensive to get in (£7 each), but we had an entrance + afternoon tea offer on Groupon which was OK price. Afternoon tea is OK, but not amazing. Must book afternoon tea in advance, though. Overall, really enjoyed our day :)

Super interesting place. The grounds are beautiful too. We took a tour and our tour guide was funny and seemed to know everything about the Abbey and the families that had lived there and Jane Austen's connection. It's part of Historic Houses so use that membership card or its £14 for the tour.

Had a walk around the grounds but you can pay extra for a house tour. Tea room with old fashioned appeal downstairs under main house entrance. We had cup of tea and crumpet with nice jam. Small gift shop. Nice walks around lake. Little pet semetry was worth a look.
