This year's Afternoon Tea Week runs from 12th - 18th August at venues across the UK and Ireland ranging from quaint tea rooms, to 5* hotels, to countryside manors and even quirkier locations!
Afternoon Tea was introduced in England by Anna, 7th Duchess of Bedford, in 1840. The Duchess would become hungry around four o'clock in the afternoon.The evening meal in her household was served fashionably late at eight o'clock, thus leaving a long period of time between lunch and dinner.
Celebrate this tradition in 2019 on a Routemaster bus in London, at a cookery school in Co Cork, a castle in Co Mayo or overlooking the Old Course in St Andrews. In Ireland afternoon tea can be served with your choice of tea, or .... Irish Coffee!
The idyllic islands off the coast of the UK and Ireland provide the perfect backdrop for exceptional Dream Escape programmes. Enjoy the peace and tranquility, explore deserted beaches, and breath-taking, unspoilt scenery.
Islands full of charming coastal character, fascinating history and amazing panoramas where Dream Escape can help you unearth their hidden charms and legends and discover mystical and untouched landscapes steeped in rich heritage and history.
