They said:

"the range and quality of the food on offer was “excellent”, with “appetizing sandwiches” and “delicious” pastries. The freshly-baked scones were singled out for special praise as “supreme – light, yet moist and full of flavour”. With 15 varieties of loose-leaf tea on offer – including speciality teas – customers are spoilt for choice. The judges were highly impressed with the standard of service, saying tea was “well presented and beautifully served”.

Summing up, one judge said:

“The staff knowledge of tea was the best I have experienced. Bearing in mind the luxury afforded, the high quality of the tea and the very efficient and willing service we thought it offered excellent value for money.”

Champagne afternoon tea in Wiltshire - relax for a few hours at the luxury Manor House now!A quintessential English tradition

Afternoon Tea was not introduced to England until the 1840’s. Anna Seventh Duchess of Bedford is given credit for beginning the tradition.

 

During the long hours between English luncheons and the late English suppers she would get a sinking feeling. So she would send to the kitchen to have a pot of water, bread, butter and cakes sent to her boudoir where she would brew the tea and appease her appetite. She is said to have shared her ideas with friends and by the mid 1840’s afternoon tea had become a widespread social event.
