Having had afternoon tea at Eastwell many times, this was by far the most disappointing experience. Seated in the coffee lounge rather than the dining room, trying to reach the table from a sofa is not easy when administering scones with jam and cream! (The jam and cream was in short supply for 3 people and we got fed up waiting for a further supply.) The most disappointing aspect was the gluten free tea provided. Four small sandwiches, a small slice of carrot (?) cake and a muffin! Really, is that the best that could be offered? And at the same price as the usual tea. When asking for another pot of tea, the same pot was refilled with hot water producing an extremely weak brew.
The staff made no attempt to ask how things were and it was difficult to catch anyone’s attention to ask for anything - like four teaspoons for the cups and saucers!
The fire was just alight when we arrived but went out quite quickly, no one attempted to keep it going.
Eastwell Manor is in a beautiful setting and is nicely kept. The Christmas decorations were stunning as usual. It is just a shame that the afternoon tea was a letdown as we had really been looking forward to it.
