Canons Ashby, Northamptonshire

For Mother's Day lunch, we trekked down to Canons Ashby, a beautiful National Trust property near Daventry, Northamptonshire. After a pleasant stroll in the spring sunshine, we went to see what the cafe had to offer. We gladly ordered the two platters available, a Cheese Trencher and the Deli Board. At £17 each for a sharing size platter, it was on the pricey side but what a fantastic treat. The five of us enjoyed every last bite of the lunch, and it was well worth the price tag and we weren't peckish until well into the evening.

Cheese Trencher
Creamy cheddar, stilton, salad, homemade bread rolls, chutney, vinegrette, homemade coleslaw, grapes,  apples and strawberries.

Deli Board
Delicious slices of ham, homemade local pate, crusty bread, balsamic and oil for dipping, olives, homemade coleslaw, salad, grapes strawberries.

The National Trust plays a big part in our lives, especially the cafes and tea rooms. Please visit my sister blog, Heidi-Elizabeth, Tales from our Everyday, for more of our NT adventures.
