Afternoon Tea at Armathwaite Hall Hotel
The food was delicious and plentiful, we couldn't eat everything but they kindly sent us home with a box of leftovers each, with a lovely ribbon. The service was brilliant, not intrusive but there if needed. I would recommend this experience to anyone who loves Afternoon Tea.

Superb afternoon tea
I was given the Virgin Experience Day as a Thank You gesture from my husband, for supporting him throughout his recovery from a major operation. I decided to take my closest friend, who supported me, along to enjoy an amazing afternoon tea. Food and service was fantastic.

Arrived at Armathwaite Hall to find it in the most beautiful setting overlooking Bassenthwaite Lake. We were made to feel welcome from the moment we stepped inside. The staff were friendly & attentive & the Afternoon Tea was beautifully presented & utterly mouth watering. To sit in this lovely setting enjoying such amazing views made it all the more special.

Birthday present
Lovely afternoon out; a birthday present from family. Shared it with my friend and both thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience. Food was delicious and presented beautifully; service welcoming, polite and helpful. Been before and menu had changed to include more savoury items which we both enjoyed giving a nice balance to the good range of sweet items. Thoroughly recommend!

A Delicious Treat.
A great location to enjoy a wonderful Afternoon Tea for 2. We had a choice of different tea's, coffee's or hot chocolate which came with extra water and we were told we could ask for fresh tea if needed (which we did). The food itself was lovely presented and there was a nice selection of sandwiches and many, many delicious cakes. It was a lovely afternoon and I would go back.

Had a lovely afternoon tea at Armathwaite Hall. Staff were very polite and pleasant. Food was gorgeous! Just the right amount and loved the Christmas decorations. Just a shame the weather was bad as we could’ve gone for a walk around the grounds afterwards. Would definitely recommend it!

A fantastic birthday afternoon tea.
I could not fault this memorable afternoon. Service, surroundings, and an afternoon tea I challenge anyone to finish. A bottle of Armathwaite Hall Champagne made it even better. We met new friends, at a classic car event in Germany a couple of months ago, and Roger and I share exactly the same date of birth, so this was a special birthday celebration. The view over Bassenthwaite Lake is superb, and was made all the better by twenty or so yachts sailing in the afternoon sun.
