AFTERNOON TEA

Introduced in the Victorian era by British royalty seeking a late afternoon snack between lunch and dinner, the quintessential joy of Afternoon Tea can now be savoured as an indulgent pastime with friends, family and partners across all our hotels and self-catering resorts.

Our dedication to using the finest ingredients ensures that our Afternoon Tea is always a special experience to be shared - whether you’re treating mum to a memorable day out or you just can’t wait to catch-up in style as part of an important social occasion.

An Experience To Be Shared

Served traditionally on tiered cake stands with savoury finger-sized sandwiches, followed by fresh, homemade scones with jam and cream, an appetising selection of cakes and a choice of Twinings loose leaf tea, enjoy Afternoon Tea at its best when visiting us.

Whether celebrating an anniversary, birthday or just because, why not add a dash of sparkle with the option of a glass of Champagne or sparkling wine each. 

Once you've taken in every last bite and sip of tea or wine, sit back and relax as you gaze out to scenery encompassing everything from stunning lake and mountain backdrops to people watching on historic city streets.
