Little Heath Tearoom

Updated 2nd April 2025

Please express your support by using the contact page, we have had so many calls and messages of support. More information will be posted by end of Friday
We are greatly distressed to say that Little Heath Farm Nursery and Tearoom have been forced to close down from 1st April
This is due to the action of The National Trust who demanded a fee of £335,000.00 be part of an access agreement to pass over the strip of land they own alongside Little Heath Lane despite Little Heath Farm having long-term rights passing over that land for more than 420 years.
The fee is only payable if we convert the old shops and store to residential, but it heavily reduced the Farm value. Our bankers for the existing cottage renovation work are not at fault but now they have no option but to foreclose to sell. They have been supportive and helpful over the past 14 months to give time to find a solution. Each one we found was killed by that National Trust action.

--------------------------------------------------

Little Heath Tearoom is in a peaceful location surrounded by trees in the Green Belt adjacent a National Trust Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

It is set in the grounds of, and managed by, Little Heath Farm Nursery with its lovely cottage garden ambience amongst the wildness of nature. In the summer months, sitting outside amongst the flowers or beneath the grapevine, many visitors enjoy sharing the space with the numerous butterflies and birds that visit the Nursery. It is a perfect way to relax while you enjoy your refreshments and accompaniments. You can potter around the Nursery, or just read and relax. Limited wifi is being made available, signal strength in our location is low.

The Nursery has specialised in, and is known for Alpines. Many other species are grown on and sold. The Nursery grows a wide range of hardy plants & herbaceous perennials, together with shrubs, ferns and trees. Many different and unusual varieties are scattered across the categories.

Little Heath Tearoom is run by #dottieaboutcake. It has returned to its traditional fare of English teas, cakes and coffee, and light lunches. Cyclists, and dogs (always on a lead), are welcome.

Little Heath Tearoom re-opened after closure due to Covid. It was previously run by Miss Darmon with their French-style menus. They can now be found at their Deli in Amersham.

NEWS PANEL
CLOSED DOWN NOW

We are pleased to say that next year we are planning a complete refurbishment of the Tearoom and kitchen to give better kitchen facilities and a bit more seating. The character and appearance will remain the same. Improvements to the car park are also being carried out.

The adjoining cottages are being ready for the sale with a full renovation. Their historic appearance and structure will be maintained. We will do all we can to minimise any disruption that may be caused by lorry deliveries of materials.

Workshop days

New sessions for are being planned.

Cyclists - we now have a 6 bay set of secure cycle racks at the end of the carpark set on a concrete slab. We have to firmly say that cycles must be put in the racks and not left leaning against tables and flower displays. Chain rope type padlocks are available in the Tearoom with a small deposit repaid on return.
