Rendell McIntosh from Alberton

We are delighted to announce that Alberton's much loved annual summer tea services return for one weekend this March!

Enjoy dainty sandwiches, scones, savouries and cakes with a showcase of luxury teas from Harney & Sons, served from vintage bone china and antique silverware.

Always an occasion, these events sell out so make sure to book promptly. Earlybird offer: for 10% off use the code TEAFANATIC when booking on Eventfinda before the end of the month! Offer expires 1 February.
