Picture of Cream Tea

We visited Y Sospan in Dolgellau while taking a break from the Mawddach Trail. As you can see from the notice board they do a very nice cream tea. Prices refer to 2010. What is a cream tea? A cream tea is a "Devonshire tea" or "Cornish cream tea" and is a pot of tea taken with a combination of scones, clotted cream (or in some instances whipped cream), and jam. I know of people who will travel for 20 miles for a cream tea with all the trimmings. (this requires the waitress to wear the full uniform). I am not a cream tea fanatic myself but I must say the scone was very nice and the clotted cream delicious.
