Apple Annie’s

Salted caramel puffs and orange mouna brioche filled with bittersweet Cointreau custard aren’t your average country-town bakery finds. Nor are blue cheese, onion and hazelnut quiches and chorizo-chilli danishes. Castlemaine is so much richer (and probably plumper) for Apple Annie’s, which combines comforting classics like almond croissants with mouth-watering inventions like flaky tomato-ricotta sausage rolls. Sit under grapevines in the courtyard and tuck into the day’s pie (perhaps beef, tomato and chorizo), or hug your mug inside, enjoying the warm hospitality of chirpy red-aproned staff
