Cinnamon Cup Coffee - Beauvale Priory, Peacocks and Ruins!
We called in at Beauvale Priory for a coffee and a bite to eat.
We've never been to the Priory before so we were looking forward to it. According to their website it was originally built for the Carthusian order of monks in 1343, which has now been turned into the lovely 'Gatehouse Tearooms'.
Before we went into the tearooms, we bumped into the owner who told us to go up to the cottage where he lives and we will see the peacocks and peahens in his garden. It was very nice of him. Most business owners want their privacy but he was very friendly. Unfortunately, the peacocks weren't in the mood to display their lovely tail feathers so we hot footed it to the tearooms.
It was very busy inside but nice to see that they also welcomed dogs. The area is popular with dog walkers so it makes good business sense. We ordered a veggie breakfast, ham and cheese toastie with a black americano coffee and a latte.
Next to the cottage was an old ruin that they call the 'The Prior’s House'. The monks would have had their communal meals there. I do like a ruin!
Overall, we found it to be a great little tearoom. It was in an ideal setting, just off the beaten track in the countryside. I really enjoyed the history attached to it as well.

Thank you very much @upvoteandresteem. ❤
5 years this has been happening to me, it started here, around people that are still here. Homeland security has done nothing at all, they are not here to protect us. Dont we pay them to stop shit like this? The NSA, CIA, FBI, Police and our Government has done nothing. Just like they did with the Havana Syndrome, nothing. Patriot Act my ass. The American government is completely incompetent. The NSA should be taken over by the military and contained Immediately for investigation. I bet we can get to the sources of V2K and RNM then. https://peakd.com/gangstalking/@acousticpulses/electronic-terrorism-and-gaslighting--if-you-downvote-this-post-you-are-part-of-the-problem
Hello @ellenripley,
I'm surprised to hear that the peacocks didn't put on a show. I wonder what bad mood they were in? It's always something I look forward to. They are so stunning, as I love to see the slow speed they move at.
The grounds look like a great place for meditation, so I see the original appeal. However, I think creating tearooms is awesome too.
Wishing you a lovely week ahead:)
Thank you @millycf1976. I think the peacocks just get fed up of performing to the tourists!
Haha! That I can understand:)

The coffee/teahouse looks cozy and lovely, and it's nice that they welcome dogs. The ruins still look beautiful and the peacocks may not be in the mood to show their beautiful colors.

Thank you very much @cinnccf. It was a lovely early morning surprise. 🌄🙂 ❤
My pleasure! I appreciate your effort in producing great content always:)
Have a great weekend 😁
Thank you for that! Hope the weather stays fine for you.
I hope so too. It rained this morning and it's still grey. Yesterday was wonderful. I went for a walk in my t-shirt... It's almost June, so we can only hope to get more glorious days before autumn [falls] upon us. 😆
Once I get in my shorts (April time). I stay in them until winter. I'm hardcore. 🙂
