Set aside the world outside for a few moments while the ritual of afternoon tea, that most Victorian of traditions, takes place amid friends and acquaintances. It is both comforting and stimulating to withdraw from the ordinary to an elegant setting and partake of sumptuous savories and sweets displayed on heirloom china and crystal. Treasured recipes and special beverages executed by our chef are served from our collection of nineteenth century American silverplate.

This daily event is optional. You will need to advise your hosts upon check-in or at breakfast if you will be present for tea.
