OUR FESTIVE AFTERNOON

TEAS IN THE COTSWOLDS

A CHRISTMAS TREAT AT THE WOOD NORTON

The Wood Norton is the epitome of English country charm. With its stunning architecture, beautifully landscaped gardens, and warm, inviting atmosphere, it’s the most wonderful place to escape to for an overnight stay, a relaxing weekend away, or a culinary experience. We went for a festive afternoon tea.

ELLENBOROUGH PARK IS A MUST IN DECEMBER

We love Ellenborough Park, everything about it is wonderful, so when we were back this week to enjoy a festive afternoon tea, the anticipation was high.

When we arrived, we were shown into The Great Hall and seated in the most comfortable chairs by a table overlooking the stunning Christmas tree that stood tall in the corner. The roaring fireplace added to the cosy and inviting atmosphere, making it the perfect setting for a festive afternoon tea.

OUR FESTIVE AFTERNOON TEA AT BUCKLAND MANOR

We were at Buckland Manor to enjoy a Festive Afternoon Tea experience. We had envisioned the enchanting afternoon tea that awaited, a delightful prelude to the festive season, and as we entered and were greeted warmly by the lovely members of staff, our vision came to life. We were seated by the open fireplace in the beautiful lounge, decorated with twinkling lights, boughs of holly, and plump wreaths… what a festive atmosphere, it was just lovely.

SPARKLY AFTERNOON TEA

We had looked forward to our afternoon tea at Tewkesbury Park for some time, so when the day came and we finally arrived, the anticipation was high.

A SWEET EXPERIENCE AT THE SLAUGHTERS COUNTRY INN

The Slaughters Country Inn in the picture-perfect Cotswold village of Lower Slaughter, is a charming space, inside and out. We recently enjoyed a festive afternoon tea here, and it was the perfect way to get into the festive spirit.

Our table, which was right next to the roaring fireplace, was the perfect setting for a cosy and festive afternoon. The warmth and the gentle crackling of the fire, created a truly inviting atmosphere. .
