Tucked away in an attractive part of Somerset, in Upper Godney, is Annie's Tea Rooms, Garden and Gallery. This quaint and delightful little place, looking out over the river Sheppey is indeed manna for the senses, a restorative for the spirit and a cure for the soul.

Homemade food tops the menu and you might wish to indulge in a hearty lunch of fresh penne pasta with a choice of smoked salmon, pesto and pine nuts or Riverbarn salmon fishcakes. The traditional cream tea with scones, clotted cream or jam is a big highlight while desserts such as orange and almond cake, banana, fig and almond tea bread or warm chocolate fudge cake with clotted cream are hot favourites among the regulars who flock here at the drop of a jam butty.

Annie's supports local artists and exhibit their works in regularly held events. But what really draws people there is the great food, the serene riverside ambience, the blushing tulips in the gardens and the friendly and helpful staff.
