About Us

We're The Village, a family friendly Tea Room & Garden Centre in Cawood, near Selby & York.

We partner with local suppliers to offer high quality breakfasts, lunches, snacks, cakes, and drinks, as well as seasonal plants and crafts. We combine this with friendly Cawood hospitality to provide all our guests with a memorable experience.

We re-opened this iconic Cawood venue in May 2023 after putting lots of effort into renovating the tea room.

Below you can find a list of our most Frequently Asked Questions, and if there's anything else you need you can always get in touch!
