I love a nice afternoon tea with friends, and I've been to top London Hotels, and Yorkshire Tea houses.....but tea at the Tower House was the most truly scrumptious afternoon tea in the world!! The gorgeous tea room was very vintage/country style, with lovely linens and English China. The Afternoon tea conisted of homemade scones, clotted cream, and the fruitiest homemade jam I've ever tasted. There were gorgeous little sandwiches, voul-au-vants, trifles, chocolate pots, and the most fantastic lemon cake in the world.... I had the biggest slice ever and I think this is what heaven must taste like. Our hostess Pippa was delightful and kept us happy with endless supplies of hot earl grey. The Tower House is a wonderful place ....and I plan to stay for bed and breakfast next time, as I had a sneaky peak at the guest rooms and they are simply beautiful. Oh and I really want to wake up to Pippa's delicious breakfast.
