It’s a lovely atmosphere which is most of what the experience is about. The high tea was tasty and enjoyable for what it is: very small portions of typical high tea food. It is quite expensive for what it is but I think everyone knows that. The flight of Prosecco, blackberry wine and cider was a nice treat.
