When you say to people Cockfosters most
of them will have a sly chuckle, as well it`s an amusing name, however
have you ever been there? For something a bit different this summer you
can get lost in the Ferny Hill Farm Maize Maze. From Cockfosters tube
station it is a 45 minute walk or a 5 min taxi. When the Maize is high
it is quite a challenge especially trying to find every single piece of
the puzzle and map. Situated next to the maze is the Ferny Hill Farm tea
room and shop that has a variety of organic foods and fresh produce.
The cream teas are a must especially.
Cream tea
(also called afternoon tea) is another lovely English tradition, taking
tea between lunch and dinner time. The traditional cream tea is tea
served with scones, jam and clotted cream (or butter for a light
version). You can also choose from the variety of different cakes, tarts
and cupcakes, or even canapés. Here is Short Let London recommendation
of good places for cream tea in London, probably the best tea is served
at Fortnum and Manson, however it can get pricey and it`s better to
reserve your table in advance. More affordable place that we could
advice for our tenants is Bake-a –boo in West Hampstead area, as it
located very close to short term apartments in London and our properties
for short let (Kilburn Park, Swiss Cottage, Kilburn areas, etc) and has
got an amazing dolly atmosphere and grandma chic with colourful tea
pots, mugs and net curtains. Some other great afternoon teas are served
at Bond and Brook (Fenwick), Beams of Bloomsbury, The Ritz, The Berkeley
hotel and Palm Court at the Langham. Visit these cute London tea rooms
and houses for amazing British traditions to experience something
different in London. Short Let London wishes you bon appetite!
