Warm scones, clotted cream and strawberry jam - where to get the best cream tea in Swindon

There's few things as quintessentially British as a cream tea.

Fresh scones (however you decide pronounce it!), thick clotted cream & sweet jam - it's a pretty simple combination but one enjoyed by thousands of people all around the country.

Add a lovely bit of sponge cake and some nicely cut finger sandwiches (no crusts!) and you have the perfect excuse for whiling away the afternoon in the most sophistiated fashion.

And here's the best places in Swindon to do just that.
