Afternoon Tea & Tour

The perfect way to slow down and savour the season.

Enjoy a relaxed afternoon at the house with a seasonal guided tour followed by a delicious festive afternoon tea.

Begin with a gentle exploration of the rooms dressed for Christmas, learning about the stories, people, and traditions that shaped the house across the centuries. The guided tour brings these spaces to life — music rooms dressed in greenery, gentle candlelit corners, and carefully placed decorations that hint at celebrations of winters past.

After touring the house, make your way to the Café for festive afternoon tea, where freshly baked treats, delicate sandwiches, and seasonal bites are served with your choice of tea or coffee. A little time to sit back, unwind, and enjoy the atmosphere — perfect for catching up with friends or simply savouring a quiet seasonal moment.

This experience makes a lovely Christmas outing — whether as a gift, a gathering with friends, or a special treat for yourself.
Every ticket supports the ongoing care and conservation of the house, its collection, and the surrounding parkland.
