Forde Abbey
We tried the new Forde Abbey tea room on Friday, and can recommend it. It's outside the pay barrier so usable for walks. Car parking can be limited at Forde Abbey so probably not available for all-day parking for a walk - but possible to visit en-route back to Winsham, or drive there afterwards.
Should add that there's plenty of outdoor and under-cover seating, and you may be able to get permission to park there for a walk. Opening season is March-October inclusive. 01460 221290, info@fordeabbey.co.uk, very helpful and welcoming.
