点评:I booked afternoon tea as a part birthday treat along with friends. We added a tour of the house as we arrived a little earlier than expected. The grounds were beautifully maintained and rather interesting with a few small ascends and took about an hour to navigate. The house is packed with interesting art and artefact and has an authenticity and easy access and took about 45 minutes.
Now then, the highlights: Afternoon Tea was without doubt one of the very best my seasoned and experienced diners had ever had. A great mix of savoury and sweet ( brioche steak sliders, sausage roll slice, quiche, and a leek and potato soup, a variety of fine sandwiches and a series of several cakes crowned with an enormous scone fresh from the oven washed down with some really excellent tea). The Earl Grey was exceptional. But the very best part was the service we received from Dawn. All the staff were smiley, helpful, always looked busy and attentive but Dawn stood out. Her welcome, her guidance and then her service were faultless. Thank you all for a memorable visit.
翻译:我和朋友们为了庆祝生日而预订了下午茶。由于我们比预期来得早一些,便又加订了一次庄园导览。庄园里的庭院维护得十分良好,还有一些小坡道,走起来相当有趣,整个游览过程大约需要一个小时。庄园内陈列着大量有趣的艺术品与古物,氛围真实自然且易于参观,整个参观过程约45分钟。
好了,就说这些吧。亮点一览:这次的下午茶无疑是我那些经验丰富、见多识广的食客们尝过的最棒的下午茶之一。各种咸甜点心搭配得恰到好处——牛排布里欧面包小三明治、香肠卷片、乳蛋饼、韭葱土豆汤,还有各式精致三明治以及多种美味蛋糕;最后再配上刚出炉的巨大司康饼,再配上一杯品质上乘的茶,简直完美。这里的伯爵茶尤其出色。不过最令人难忘的还是Dawn提供的贴心服务。所有员工都面带微笑、乐于助人,看起来总是忙个不停且全神贯注;不过Dawn尤为出众。她的热情接待、细致指引以及无懈可击的服务都堪称完美。感谢大家让我拥有了一次难忘的体验。
