We are pleased to let you know that our new coffee machine has been installed!

Without the amazing support and donations from our fantastic villagers and friends, we couldn't have done this, so thank you very much.

We have set up favourites on the machine which will ensure you get consistency and great tasting coffee. For the next week, we are offering a cup of coffee for just £2.50 and we would appreciate your feedback.

We are now using "Rutland Blend" beans from The Stamford Coffee Company so if you've not tried this delicious coffee, here's a great opportunity for you.

Thank you again everyone, you are amazing ❤️
