Afternoon Tea, Al Fresco
August also marks Afternoon Tea Week, celebrating one of Britain’s most cherished traditions. Originating in the 1840s with Anna, the 7th Duchess of Bedford, afternoon tea began as a light indulgence to bridge the gap between lunch and dinner.
By inviting friends to join her for tea, delicate sandwiches and sweet treats, she created a ritual that has endured for generations. This summer, experience the tradition for yourself with afternoon tea served al fresco in Prestonfield’s gardens, surrounded by manicured lawns, fragrant blooms and the gentle charm of our resident Highland cows grazing nearby.
