Originally an old pig house built some 300 years ago and converted into a small shop in the late 1950's, it was destroyed in the flood on 2004 when the rising waters bought a VW camper van floating down the swollen river Valency, only to clip the building and bring it crashing down. It has been lovingly rebuilt with as much original material as possible (much was washed out to sea) and is again a charming little tea shop in the harbour.
