Did you know that it is really hard to single handedly fill the boot of a Mercedes with massive helium balloons? Planning a small impromptu baby shower was hard work! This is how my first trip to Jesmond Dene House for Afternoon Tea began and thankfully it ended on a much less stressful note!
On a wet and rainy Saturday afternoon, I whisked my Mam away for a decadent afternoon of cakes, tea and several Gin & Tonics in the luxurious confines of Slaley Hall for one of their excellent G&Tea afternoon teas (£21.35pp).
Who could resist?
Towards the end of February, we raided our piggy bank and stayed at St Mary’s Inn for a post Valentines weekend away. The review is coming soon so keep an eye out for it!
Whilst we were there, we indulged in one of their new signature Afternoon Tea’s (£14.99)*.
