Offering up a wondrous location in which to enjoy the traditional British pastime that is Afternoon Tea, Ravenstone Lodge combines a stylish interior with an exterior that boasts spectacular views across the Lake District in the creation of serene setting to enjoy a meal. The country house hotel can be found along the A591 in the quaint village of Bassenthwaite and makes for a sublime escape from those everyday trials and tribulations, be it for a few hours amidst a day of exploration, or an overnight stay in one of their cosy bedrooms.

Home to two distinct dining areas, the Coach House Restaurant and the Stable Bar Bistro, visitors to Ravenstone Lodge will have ample space for afternoon tea. The venue now offers a warm welcome Gourmet Society members in to enjoy such at a fantastic discount when they call in advance with their card, and they are encouraged to sit back as the superb service team bring out tiered stands filled with exquisite treats. From the delicate array of finger sandwiches to the delectable selection of cakes and pastries, each bite promises to be as divine as the last.

Not to be forgotten, there are a scrumptious collection of scones, which come complete with jam, butter and clotted cream, that round the feast off in style, and diners are able to wash it all down with their choice of Twinings Teas or, should they be feeling that little more indulgent, a glass of Prosecco – ensuring that an afternoon tea at Ravenstone Lodge is concluded in style.
