★★★★★a month agoI highly recommend a visit to the Flagstaff House. It’s a quiet look at how tea was used and created writhe the best tea set museum and store. The store had the best representation to purchase at the best prices too. This is where we stocked up on our gifts.

★★★★★7 months agoWhat a fabulous museum about all things Tea! The use of and enjoyment of tea both culturally & historically. Exquisite examples of tea ware beautifully displayed delighted.. There were some staggeringly old ceramics and the most exquisite new piece’s made in 2025. Some previous comments have been less impressed with this lovely free museum in a wonderful old colonial building. Jez when you see what absolute shite is being sold and looked at up at the Peak gallery .. this is gold and not to be missed! I was amazed by a teapot made in the western Zhou in 1027 incredible to see … The shop was a treasure trove too, with helpful & knowledgable staff!
