Each afternoon, as elegant yachts and the steamers ply their trade up and down Windermere, we bring out the best crockery, the finest Farrers teas (and coffee, if you’re feeling adventurous), a splendid selection of finger sandwiches and an array of beautifully dainty cakes for residents and non-residents indulging in our famous Afternoon Tea.

For £27.50 per person, you can take tea in one of our Arts & Crafts lounges, by the inglenook fireplace and a roaring fire or, if the sun is shining, out on the terrace, with its delightful views of Windermere and the Lake District fells.

If you’re marking a birthday, celebrating an anniversary or simply in the mood to indulge, our extra decadent Champagne Afternoon Tea costs £37.50 per person and is very popular.

Available throughout the week from 14:30 until 16:30, booking is strongly recommended as our cakes are all baked to order at the beginning of each day.

Please note that we do not offer dairy free or vegan options for afternoon tea.
