A POPULAR Ryde tearoom has announced with 'great sadness' that it will close its doors at the end of this month.

Bartletts Green Farm Tea Rooms, found on Brading Road near Busy Bee and Tesco, serves freshly baked homemade cakes and scones, loose-leaf teas, Lavazza coffee and freshly prepared light lunches.

The tearoom announced that the business cannot keep running with the continued cost and that it brought them great sadness to come to this decision.

The venue will still be available for private functions, like birthday celebrations, anniversaries, baby showers and wakes.

Posting on its Facebook page, Bartletts Green Farm said: “We would like to thank all of you for your continued support over the past six years.

“We ask if you have any vouchers, could you please book to redeem them.

“We hope to see you soon!”

The tearoom will close its doors on Saturday, October 29.
