THE TEA BARN
A Quintessential British Cafe
The Tea Barn cafe is nestled in the heart of the South Downs at Durleighmarsh Farm. It is owned and run by husband and wife team, Ben and Maddison, who pride themselves on using fresh and seasonal ingredients to create tasty breakfast and lunch menus with fantastic, locally sourced tea and coffee.
Maddison is passionate about baking and so the café, of course, specialises in producing delicious and seasonal cakes, scones and afternoon teas that are available all day, every day.
With stunning views over Durleighmarsh Farm and the British countryside, from both inside The Tea Barn and outside in the large garden, there are few nicer spots to enjoy a coffee and slice of cake.

AFTERNOON TEA
ADULTS – CHILDREN – GIFT VOUCHERS
Our real passion is all things cake and that naturally transpires into afternoon teas. We believe that they should always be homemade, fresh and seasonal and that’s what we set out to achieve at The Tea Barn.
Special occasions aren’t just for adults so we have devised a simpler afternoon tea for the little ones!

FROZEN MEALS
Our love of cooking and baking doesn’t end at The Tea Barn – we also cook frozen meals under the name ‘The Kitchen @ Durleighmarsh’ that can be heated up and enjoyed at home.
The meals are made in exactly the same way that one would at home – by hand, in small batches and by a small team of cooks – Kate, Lauren, Maddison & Ben.
Our frozen meals are available to purchase at The Tea Barn or if you would like to place an order, you can do by sending us an email and we will then have it ready for you to collect.
EVENTS
If you are looking for a venue to host your event, the Tea Barn may be the perfect choice.
We have space for up to 35 guests inside and more in our large garden if the weather allows.
We have provided the venue and afternoon tea for many special occasions such as baby showers, hen dos and birthday parties and for groups of 20 or more, we don’t charge a room hire fee.

About Us
We are a husband and wife team who fell in love with Durleighmarsh Farm and The Tea Barn from our very first visit.
We took over The Tea Barn in November 2019 after running a ski chalet business in France for several years. We missed England and the beautiful countryside so were thrilled to find Durleighmarsh and settle in the local area.
We take an active role in all day to day operations from making a cappuccino to baking the cakes and afternoon teas. We love serving in The Tea Barn and enjoy nothing more than a chat with our lovely customers so do say hi if you get a chance.
We really hope you enjoy your visit.
