Take advantage of a limited time offer of a Champagne Afternoon Tea in our newly refurbished American Garden Deli, with stunning views across the Cotswold Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. This special tea can be enjoyed from inside the Deli, on our sun-soaked terrace or taken as a picnic in our breath-taking gardens.
