Afternoon tea at Coombe Abbey

Afternoon tea at Coombe Abbey

On Sunday me and my friend Amy, went to Coombe Abbey for afternoon tea for my 21st birthday (belated present).  And I must say that it is one of the best things to buy me, as i am a tea addict, and I love cakes!  So I was very impressed.   :) 

 On arrival to Coombe Abbey the building and surrounding gardens were beautiful. The hotel even had its own moat, which is pretty impressive.  

The afternoon tea that we had was the traditional Abbots Afternoon Tea, which came on a three layered stand. On the bottom were scones, cream and jam. The middle was a range of finger sandwiches and on top were homemade cakes and desserts. (in pictures below) 


Which may not look or sound a lot, but trust me, we couldn't of fitted one more thing in our mouths, even if we tried.




Plus we had a tea pot full of traditional breakfast tea, which seemed like a forever lasting tea pot. 
So overall we were very stuffed and nearly had to be rolled out of there!


After our afternoon tea we had a wonder around the hotel and the outside grounds, which was great. We also took millions of photos. Which of course had to be done :).  

Overall I was very happy with the Afternoon Tea experience and think that it was great value for money.  Also the location is great and in the summer it would be very nice just to have a wonder around. The food was lovely and you could tell that it was homemade.

If you would like to have a lovely, peaceful enjoyable day out, then I would defiantly recommend this. Also if there is any celebrations coming up it would be a great place to go. With family, friends or for a romantic day out.
