Ashridge afternoon tea

Super afternoon using a Christmas voucher gift for afternoon tea at Ashridge House near Berkhamsted.
Fabulous place. We’ve actually worked there many times over the years, but I’ve never visited inside.
We had a wander round before and after the actual afternoon tea and the voucher included entrance to the private gardens which were spectacular.
So many photos to choose from but the laburnham arch won out in the end. Some in extras too. All in all a really good afternoon.

The official description.
Once a royal residence to Henry VIII and Princess Elizabeth I, today Ashridge House is an award winning meeting, events and wedding venue. Set in 190 acres of beautiful landscaped gardens a Grade I neo-gothic country estate.
